Nestle lauded for successful Women’s Golf

Hodgkinson said, “I hope that both your brands and this tournament will keep growing from strength to strength and will continue to provide an outlet for women, young and old, local, regional and international - a platform to express ourselves through sport.” Serena Mackenzie emerged victorious last weekend with scores of 79 and 76 to beat a field of 69 women including 17 foreign players.

There were participants from several countries including Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Canada, Curacao, St Kitts, Suriname and the United Kingdom.

Each year since inception of the tournament in 1989, Nestle has lent its support. This year, the 29th edition of the tournament, Nestle contributed $80,000 to the Open through its brands.

The Ladies Open is an annual two-day tournament which offers high-level competition for women of all skill levels, promotes healthy lifestyles among women and celebrates women in golf. The Open is just one of two in Trinidad and Tobago played over two days for women only. This tournament, in particular, is a national team qualifier for selection in international competition later this year.
