Golfing fever has taken over Heritage Resorts
The most important golf event on the island and only tri-sanctioned tournament endorsed by the European, Asian and Sunshine Tours.
With a field of 126 international players facing each other to win a prize fund of € 1 000 000, the 2016 edition attracted some of the greatest international players such as Li Haotong, the 20 year old Chinese prodigy and winner of the Volvo China Open in April in 2016; Thomas Levet one of the greatest French players; Australian Scott Hend, recent winner of the True Thailand Classic in March 2016, and George Coetzee, South African player and defending champion of the inaugural edition of the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open held at the Heritage Resorts in 2015. Jeunghun Wang claimed the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open title after an intense battle with Siddikur Rahman on the 15th of May 2016 at the Four Seasons Golf Club, Anahita.
This win made Wang the first player to win in consecutive weeks since Rory McIIroy claimed the WGC Bridgestone Invitational followed by the US PGA championship in 2014.
