More than 80 teams are already registered via www.xeroxcgc.com, and the organisers are now building a waiting list of interested golfers with a registered handicap, who will be accommodated based on cancellations.

Located on The Wave, Muscat, Almouj Golf Course provides a challenging 18-holes of varying lengths and configurations. Designed by Greg Norman, course highlights include a daunting Par 3 island green and a challenging Par 5 that stretches over 600 yards.

Andrew Horne, General Manager, Xerox Emirates, said: “We are very happy that the Almouj Golf Course is once again hosting the Xerox Corporate Golf Challenge. Interest around playing this course is evident from the fact that all slots were taken up before we officially announced registrations. We wish all our Muscat golfers the very best, and look forward to an interesting day’s play.”

New on-course competitions this year include the King of Pars, sponsored by deVere Acuma, for the teams that perform best on Pars 3, 4 and 5.

This will be particularly relevant as the Almouj golf course offers challenging Par 3 and Par 5’s. Best-scoring teams on various hole types win prizes as well as entry into the ‘Golden Ticket’ draw, which will bring wild-card entries into the 2016 Grand Finals.

This years’ Xerox Corporate Golf Challenge is supported by the Emirate of Ajman, as host city and destination partners including the Ajman Palace, Ajman Kempinski, and Ajman Saray.

Fairmont Ajman hotels and Ajman’s Al Zorah Golf Club are venue sponsors for the 2016 Grand Finals. Other main sponsors of the tournament include deVere Acuma, Chrysler, and Select Property.
