Adding to the excitement, golfers at the event had the opportunity to try out the latest Stealth 2 drivers featuring revolutionary Carbonwood technology. Stationed at the par-four Hole 3 with TaylorMade professionals Alex Tiong and Nate Stevenson there to help participants understand more about the driver, participants had the option of using one of the Stealth 2 drivers for their first counting drive, or use their own drivers and hit a test second shot using a Stealth 2.
At the end of the day, Missouri Western Men’s Golf Team junior, Victory Ng, emerged as the champion with an impressive score of 43 Stableford points off a System 36 handicap of 6. Ng, who scored seven birdies throughout his round, took home a TaylorMade Stealth Iron set worth RM6,600.
