More than a golf competition
Celebrations continued after play had finished, with participants gathering on the terrace of the resort’s Unik restaurant. Good food and conversation created a day that reflected the values on which Las Colinas was founded fifteen years ago. A prize presentation and raffle gave attendees even more reasons to remember the occasion. Javier Rodriguez, Operations Director at Las Colinas Golf & Country Club, expressed with warmth his delight at the response from players.
“We wanted this year’s traditional August 1 tournament to carry even greater meaning by making it part of our 15th anniversary celebrations. The response from players exceeded our expectations and once again confirms the strong connection between Las Colinas and its golfing community,” he said.
