One lucky spectator will drive off with a brand new BMW320, courtesy of Qatar Duty Free when the Commercialbank Qatar Masters, presented by Dolphin Energy is staged at Doha Golf Club later this month.
It will be the first time Qatar Duty Free has been involved with the US$2.5 million PGA European Tour event and the organisation is marking the occasion by bringing its popular Luxury Car Draw on to the golf course itself. The winning ticket will be drawn by the tournament champion after the prize presentation on January 25.
Qatar Airways Chief Executive Officer Akbar Al Baker, who is also CEO of Qatar Duty Free Company, said he was proud for the airline to be associated with the Qatar Masters, as it is one of the country’s premier international sporting events.
“With Qatar enjoying phenomenal growth and drawing major international sporting events, Qatar Duty Free looks forward to a long-term commitment to the Qatar Masters.
“We’re excited to be raffling a 2009 BMW 320 Coupe exclusively for this event. The limited draw is open to golf fans and residents alike and entrants have an excellent chance of winning,” Al Baker said.
Visitors can purchase raffle tickets at the dedicated Qatar Duty Free Car Draw area located at the Doha Golf Club from Tuesday the 21st of January 2009 until the last day of the tournament.
Located at Doha International Airport, Qatar Duty Free is a subsidiary company of Qatar Airways, the national carrier of the State of Qatar, and has been one of the most outstanding success stories in the region in recent years.
More than US$1million has already been invested by Qatar Duty Free in refurbishing the existing shopping facilities in the departures and arrivals area at Doha International Airport. Future plans include a brand-new Duty Free shopping experience inside the New Doha International Airport, a state-of-the-art facility scheduled to open in 2011.
“We are always delighted to welcome new members to our family of sponsors and it is particularly true in this case as Qatar Duty Free is one of the leading organisations in the country,” said Hassan Al Nuami, President of the Qatar Golf Association (QGA).
Held in conjunction with the QGA, the Qatar Olympic Committee and Commercialbank, the Commercialbank Qatar Masters, presented by Dolphin Energy, will be staged from January 22-25 at Doha Golf Club.
World stars such as defending champion Adam Scott, world no.2 Sergio Garcia, former winners Retief Goosen and Henrik Stenson and American stars Brandt Snedeker and Boo Weekley are already confirmed in the 120-man line-up with more big names expected over the coming days.
“We have a wonderful field this year and I’m sure spectators are in for a great four days of golf,” said Commercialbank Group CEO Andrew Stevens. “Having the chance of winning a brand new car is an added bonus for fans in 2009 and we are grateful to Qatar Duty Free for their support in what is their first year with us at the Commercialbank Qatar Masters, presented by Dolphin Energy.”
