“We were excited when the management of Dunlop Srixon Sports Asia (DSSA) decided to resume The Srixon Cup this year after having it on hold the last two years due to pandemic that affected everyone. This tournament has always been amongst the popular ones that we manage and as expected the moment we launch it on our Facebook page that very next day all the spots were taken up either from our regular supporters or our new customers. We also have to thank DSSA for the support of the goodies and prizes for the event. Each participant this time received a golf cart bag as their goody bag along with other items like Performance Gear golf shirt and Srixon golf balls,” said Mr. Frankie Choo, Director of Transview Golf Sdn Bhd.
