He noted that the tournament will provide an ideal platform for golfers to celebrate the sport, build friendships, and create lasting memories.

With strong participation expected, the Cinnamon Colombo Golf Classic is poised to become a flagship annual event, culminating in a gala awards ceremony to honour the tournament’s outstanding performers.
