EVENT: GOLF WITH A HEART - IN SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT’S CHALLENGE 2010
LOCATION: ORCHID COUNTRY CLUB

Golf With A Heart was organised and funded by Singapore Pools to benefi t the President’s Challenge (PC) 2010. The charity golf tournament, held at Orchid Country Club, was followed by a dinner reception in the evening, culminating in the presentation of a $222,000 donation cheque to Mr Niam Chiang Meng, PC 2010 Chairman.

To underscore the charity element of this event, the top five golfers were determined based on a combination of the usual Double Peoria Stableford format and points converted from “hearts” earned by golfers on the green.

Golfers were encouraged to earn funds for PC 2010 by scoring “hearts” at the 18 holes. Corporate sponsors donated $88 for every “heart” earned by the golfers at the respective holes. In addition, the Tote Board also donated $50 and $100 respectively for every par and birdie or better achieved by the golfers.

Leaders from government, business, professional bodies and non-government organisations attended the event. The guest of honour was Senior Minister Mr Goh Chok Tong, and the Special Guest was Minister for Finance, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam.
