Tourney tees off tomorrow

Around 80 golfers will hit the greens and fairways tomorrow at the Barbados Golf Club in the new Digicel/Virgin Atlantic Open Tournament.
The tournament tees off at 7 a.m. and is being played over two days, and 36 holes, with several attractive prizes at stake.
Some of the attractive prizes up for grabs through the generosity of sponsors, include trips to London, mobile phones, complimentary data-packages and stays at leading hotels.
The tournament will feature players of all ages and skill levels on a challenging course at Durants.
Several of the island’s top golfers will be competing in the top flight (0-9 handicaps) and senior divisions and will use the Digicel/Virgin Atlantic Open as a warm-up to national trials which are scheduled for month-end. (BB)
