At the trophy presentation, Nadine Persaud of Crown Mining Supplies expressed gratitude to the golfers for their participation in the one-day tournament. She also reminded them of the decades-long partnership the company has shared with the Lusignan Golf Club, an alliance she said will endure well into the future.
“The Lusignan Golf Club Executive Committee wishes to thank all attendees and staff for their continued adherence to all COVID protocols and look forward to doing its part to responsibly grow the game of golf in Guyana. The club is aiming to expand the game and its values to underserved communities,” the Club said in a statement.
