The IBB International Golf and Country Club, Abuja will host the World Corporate Golf Challenge for the first time in over 10 years, from October 2 to 4, organizers have said.

The 2020 edition of the competition will be organised in Nigeria by new franchise holder; Falcon Golf Development Company.

The CEO of FGDC, Remi Olukoya, said the choice of Abuja for the return of WCGC was to reflect the true national status of the event, saying the event was open to all reputable organisations operating in Nigeria.

Olukoya said, “We are very pleased with this development. We are happy to partner WCGC and give Nigerian businessmen and women who are golfers a great time and opportunity to showcase their prowess in golf.”

Also speaking ahead of the competition, Raquel Silva, WCGC Event Manager, said FGDC had the required experience, contacts and facilities to successfully develop the World Corporate Golf Challenge in Nigeria.

The winning team will enjoy an all-expense paid trip to Portugal from November 11 to 15, where they will represent Nigeria and their company at the world finals of the competition in the Oitavos Dunes field.
