We are pleased to announce that RSGC was nominated in the Best Maintained Golf Course Category for the Malaysian Golf Awards 2016. Course Superintendent Jack Cheong received the award on behalf of the Club during the event held on May 21 at Templer Park Country Club.

The Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club, The Els Club Teluk Datai, Kota Permai Golf & Country Club and Palm Garden Golf Club were also nominated.
“As the governing body of golf in Malaysia, the MGA is keen to recognise achievements in golf across all aspects of the industry. The Malaysian Golf Awards gives us the chance to do so and we hope that this will spur golfers, golf clubs and everyone involved in the industry to greater heights,” said MGA president Tan Sri Dato’ Setia Mohd Anwar Mohd Nor.
A total of 19 awards were presented in 16 categories to recipients from all facets of the golf industry, from the professional game, elite amateurs and juniors to coaches, golf clubs and corporate sponsors.
The Malaysian Golf Awards is Malaysia’s only industry-wide golf awards, recognising deserving individuals and organisations that have excelled in the various aspects of the golf industry. The selection of award winners was based on voting by a 50-strong panel comprising MGA committee members, ParGolf personnel and selected golf industry personalities, except for the Special Awards where the winners were selected by ParGolf.
