Malaysia has long been recognized as a land full of ancient culture, alluring wonders, and amazing cuisine. In fact, it is said that most everything under the sun can be experienced in Malaysia. Now, the nation is vying for one more compelling activity to add to its long list of reasons to visit: Golf.
The country made history recently when both the PGA TOUR and LPGA announced tournaments would be held in Malaysia. "This is indeed very exciting for the PGA TOUR to be able to venture into Southeast Asia, an opportunity made possible through the commitment shown by the Malaysian government, the organizational capabilities of Carbon Worldwide and PGA Promotions of Malaysia, and access to a world-class golf facility in The Mines Resort & Golf Club. Southeast Asia has great potential for burgeoning growth in golf, and we are extremely pleased to take this significant first step into the marketplace," said PGA TOUR Vice President of Business Development, Matthew Rapp.
