Golf fans are going to experience the most interactive Nedbank Golf Challenge in the tournament’s history, as this year’s event showcases a host of ground-breaking new activations and experiences aimed at making fans an even greater part of “Africa’s Major”.
From the moment spectators enter Sun City for this iconic Rolex Series tournament on the European Tour Race to Dubai from November 14 to 17, they will be welcomed to a golf experience that includes the latest VR technology, live activations, and a wide variety of hospitality, entertainment and dining options on par with the biggest tournaments in world golf.
“Our whole focus this year is on fan engagement and involving as many spectators in as many different activities as we can, and giving them the opportunity to win what are some truly amazing prizes on offer this year,” said Jeanne Visagie, tournament operations manager of the Nedbank Golf Challenge.
One of the most anticipated of these activations, which will be announced later, will involve fans in a way that has never been done before at this tournament and utilising the Nedbank Golf Challenge App to enhance the spectator experience.
“It’s going to be something totally unique and we are very excited about it,” said Visagie.
The fan experience of this year’s Nedbank Golf Challenge is completed with a hassle-free luxury coach transport option for those traveling from Johannesburg and Pretoria.
There will be four departure points to ensure the safe departure and return of spectators. Services from The Maslow in Sandton, Time Square, Cedar Square, Clearwater Mall, East Rand Mall and Eastgate Shopping Centre will also be provided. The coaches depart at 6am at departure points each day of the tournament and will depart from Sun City at 5pm.
General access tickets for the Nedbank Golf Challenge, hosted by Gary Player, are on sale.
