SINGAPORE: The US Kids Golf India, which plans to conduct events across Asia under the US Kids Golf Asia umbrella, signed its first major partner in Singapore.
The series to be called US Kids Golf Singapore Tour, will come under the aegis of USKG, Asia.
The agreement was officially signed by Rajesh Srivastava, President, US Kids Golf, Asia, and President USKG, India, and Lyn Yeo, Founder of LLD Sports. It will set the ball rolling for a series of six events, which could be expanded further.
“We are proud to bring the US Kids Golf Tour to Singapore. Over the next few weeks and months, we will have a series of partnerships across Asia in popular golf playing countries like Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and many more countries,” said Srivastava.
With both sides agreeing to create more opportunities for young and talented golfers from either country, the first beneficiary will be India’s top amateur, Avani Prashanth, who will get to play at a pro event in Singapore, which is being run by LLD Sports.
Lyn Yeo said, “We are thrilled to bring a world class brand of tournaments to Singapore, through which our young golfers in Singapore can make their way to international events in Europe and the United States. We also look forward to the youngsters going to India for Indian Championships later in the year.”
The six-event US Kids Golf Singapore Tour will have their events at the iconic Laguna National Resort, which has two world class facilities, the Classic and Masters layouts.
