ISPS HANDA to become title sponsor of World Cup of Golf 2013
The International Federation of PGA Tours has announced International Sports Promotion Society (ISPS) as the new title sponsor for the ISPS HANDA World Cup of Golf, to be played at The Royal Melbourne Golf Club from November 21-24, 2013.
ISPS
has previously shown its commitment to professional golf through its
title sponsorship of the Wales Open on The European Tour and the PGA
Seniors Championship on the European Seniors Tour.
The
ISPS HANDA World Cup of Golf will showcase Victoria to approximately
800 million homes in more than 200 countries and territories as the best
players in the world from more than 30 nations will represent their
countries at Royal Melbourne.
“ISPS
is delighted to become title sponsor of this exciting major global
event,” said ISPS Founder and Chairman, Dr. Haruhisa Handa.
“At
ISPS, we believe in the ‘power of sport’, its unique ability to create
hope, to breakdown educational and cultural barriers, and to inspire
people in a way that very little else does. For this reason, ISPS has a
long history of supporting
golf globally with a specific commitment to raising the profile of
blind and disabled golf.
“Our
ultimate mission is for golf to become a Paralympic sport. There is a
great synergy with the World Cup of Golf embracing the same format and
eligibility when golf returns to the Olympic programme in Rio 2016.”
Dr. Handa established the International Blind Golf Association (IBGA) in 1998
