Golf season resumes this weekend with Massy United tournament

Massy United Insurance of Lot 126F Carmichael Street, Georgetown, will be sponsoring its fourth annual golf tournament at the Lusignan Golf Course on Saturday, with tee-off at 13:00h.

According to a release from the Lusignan Golf Club, this tournament was postponed for almost four months due to persistent rainfall, which left the ground and access road in a poor shape.

There has been remedial work on the club’s access road through collaboration between Macorp, Mohan Jacob, Director for Design and Construction with American-based construction company EMR Inc., and the club’s executives.

Meanwhile, Branch Manager Lindel Harlequin indicated that, “Massy United Insurance is pleased to be involved in promoting golfing in Guyana.”

Massy United Insurance, a Barbados-based company, offers a wide range of general insurance products for businesses throughout 14 territories in the Caribbean.  

Lusignan Golf Club President, Oncar Ramroop, in expressing gratitude on behalf of the club, said, “We are highly appreciative of the good faithful support that we have had from Massy United Insurance in four years of sponsoring tournaments, and we are grateful that Mr. Harlequin is also enthused at continuing this great support. We at Lusignan Golf Club are quite delighted that Massy not only provides such support, but also offers great insurance coverage to the club.”

This Saturday’s tournament will be played on the Open Medal Play system, with the top four best Net, Nearest-to-the-Pin, Best Gross and most honest golfer prizes up for grabs.  

The Lusignan Golf Club is extending an invitation to the general public to come out and witness the tournament, which is expected to last for approximately five hours.
