The executive director of the body, Tony Philmore, who is equally a professional golfer holds the belief that nothing could be more gracious than setting aside a week in a whole year for professionals featuring in a tourney solely bearing their own image. 

Even though sponsorship is needed for such a huge venture, Philmore nonetheless reiterated that the tourney would still hold regardless of any sponsorship. 

“We are celebrating ourselves,” Philmore said. “In as much as we would gladly welcome any sponsorship to add glamour to this event we would however move ahead and pay from our purse in a situation where no sponsor shows, this is already a task that must be accomplished,”

According to the media director of PGAN, Susan Cokekotas, the PGAN Championship which is slated to hold from this Wednesday through Saturday at the Port Harcourt Club 1928 Golf Section.

‘This event is a most important one,” Susan who has been involved in serious golfing since 1997 said, 

“The event would indeed be an icing on the cake for the new board which has accomplished so much within its short period in power. This event will surely signpost a greater future for the professional game as it is currently evident that the professionals in their numbers have indicated total confidence and support for this new board.”

As part of the Championship, PGAN will be honoring its two mega sponsors Chief Ikenna Okafor and Dr, Austin Ndubuisi.
