Highland Golf Links pro-am sponsored by Tomatin
News release
UNIQUE PRIZE GOES ON SHOW TO TEE UP HIGHLAND
PRO-AM EVENT
A unique prize in Scottish golf is going on display as the countdown begins to a prestigious event which tees off this month.
The Highland Golf Links Pro Am sponsored by Tomatin will be held from September 30 to October 2 at three leading championship courses – Castle Stuart Golf Links, Royal Dornoch Golf Club and The Nairn Golf Club.
In addition to the winner’s cheque, the top professional will this year collect a bottle of Tomatin 50-year-old single malt, which has been bottled exclusively for the tournament and is valued at more than £10,000.
In the build-up to the PGA in Scotland Tour event, the valuable prize will be displayed at the Tomatin Distillery visitor centre from Tuesday, September 17 until Friday, September 20.
Stuart McColm, general manager at Castle Stuart and Pro Am organiser, said:
“The Highland Golf Links Pro Am is already one of the richest events in the PGA in Scotland Tour, but the addition of this prize by our headline sponsor means it offers something different to any other golf competition in Scotland.”
Stephen Bremner, managing director of the globally-renowned Tomatin Distillery, said: “The 50-year-old malt is a very special whisky, which is fitting for such an outstanding event at three of the finest courses in Scotland.”
Having matured for half a century, the deep-honey coloured malt is encased in a handblown Glencairn crystal decanter.
This is presented in an Italian- crafted wooden box, furnished with soft, premium Italian leather, and comes with its own, individually-numbered book, signed by Distillery Manager, Graham Eunson.
As well as the winning pro prize, Tomatin is supplying all amateur players in the event with an exclusive bottle of 16-year-old single malt from a commemorative cask.
The Pro Am has attracted more than 50 teams from across the UK, Europe and the USA. Amateur players include BBC journalist and broadcaster Naga Munchetty, Sky Sports reporter Sarah Stirk and talkSPORT radio host Georgie Bingham.
Pro golfer and BBC golf reporter Alan Tait will captain the Caste Stuart team which will also feature BBC golf correspondent Iain Carter.
The event has attracted new corporate partners, TaylorMade and Black Isle Brewery, while other sponsors include the Kingsmills Hotel and Culloden House hotel, clothing manufacturers Private Estate and communications company System2.
There are still a few spaces available at the event. If you would like to enter visit https://www.hglproam.com
