Nominees at the World Golf Awards, the only global initiative to recognise, reward and celebrate excellence in the golf hospitality industry, have been revealed as voting opens ahead of the inaugural Gala Ceremony.
The World Golf Awards will take place at the Conrad Algarve in Quinta do Lago from November 13 to 16.
Awards will be made across a range of categories during the event, with leading golf tourism destinations competing for titles including Best Golf Resort, Best Golf Course, Best Golf Tour Operator, and Best New Golf Course.
Chris Frost, Managing Director of World Golf Awards, said: “We made the decision to launch World Golf Awards in reaction to overwhelming demand from the golf industry for a programme that was fair and transparent.
“As we prepare to open the voting and begin our 2014 search we feel we have created a programme with a mission to serve as the definitive benchmark of excellence, and to help to foster a new era of growth in golf tourism. Register now and make your voice heard.”
The presentation of the awards on November 15 will form the centrepiece of a three-day itinerary for the event, allowing guests to enjoy the facilities at the Quinta do Lago Resort.
Among the highlights will be a chance to play on the newly-renovated Quinta do Lago North Course.
The World Golf Classic Golf Competition will be held on the new Quinta do Lago North Course during the day of the Gala Ceremony (November 15).
Voting will close on October 2. Email chris.fro[email protected] to register to participate.
