The UAE national golf team will compete in the 38th Arab Golf Championship to be held from October 18 to 21 in La Marsa, Tunisia.
Hosted by the Arab Golf Federation at The Residence Tunis, over 52 players from more than 12 different countries will compete at this four-day championship. Khalid Yousuf, Ahmed Skaik, Saif Thabet, and Mohamed Adel Al Hajeri will represent the UAE.
After two months of heavy tournament golf, the UAE team will switch their focus to the highly anticipated Arab Golf Championship. All four players have had a busy schedule since the end of August playing in events such as the World Amateur Team Championship (Eisenhower Trophy) in Ireland, Asian Amateur Championship in Singapore, and the Junior Olympic Games in Argentina.
"The team and players are in full swing after two and half months of good golf. We feel that we have the ability to compete in both of the Team and Individual Categories", said Emirates Golf Federation Secretary General, Khalid Mubarak Al Shamsi.
Designed by Robert Trent Jones II, the 18-hole Residence Tunis Golf Course has a challenging links feel that will test all players' games this weekend.
"The course is not playing very long, but with the number of water hazards and winds expected to pick up during the weekend, the playing conditions will be a good test for all of the players. As a team, we are hitting the ball well and if we stick to our game plan we should have a good finish," said National Team Captain Khalid Yousuf.
