Each year BMW presents the opportunity for club golfers from around the world – a chance to participate in amateur golf’s only “Major.” It’s called the BMW Golf Cup International and it’s entered by over 1000 golfers from 50 countries, culminating in a 54 hole competition on one of the most beautiful golf resorts on the planet. This year’s event culminates in Dubai at the Emirate Golf club from March 5 – 10, 2017.

From a customer-centric perspective, we have always moved courses each year we have hosted this event. As a matter of fact, this event is organised in order to ensure that all our customers and prospects get equal chance to participate and enjoy the amazing feel and experience of the BMW Golf World Final.

In the past, we have hosted the BMW Golf national qualifiers at the Le Meridian Golf Club in Uyo, IBB Golf Club, Abuja, Ikoyi Club, Ikoyi but this is our first with Lakowe, which currently ranks among the biggest courses in West Africa.

Our plan is to, at least, sponsor the overall top player to an all expense paid trip towards representing our local market at the BMW world championship. And this is why we have insisted that the BMW National Final is an official golf tournament and must be played according to the official rules.

Playing in the BMW Golf Cup World Final is once in a lifetime experience as every participant can only qualify for the World Final once in their lifetime. As a standard rule players are expected to either be first time participants or mustn’t have participated in the last 5 events (World Final 2011-2015).
