Professional golfers across Ghana are preparing for the upcoming PGA Masters, the second major event in PGA Ghana’s “Road to Damang” series. Following the successful Golden Classic qualifiers at Tema’s Centre of the World Golf Course, the PGA Masters is set to take place from June 6-8, 2024, at the Damang Golf Club in the Western Region.

This tournament is critical in selecting the 22 players who will represent Ghana at the 2024 PGA Open. With the Asantehene Open also scheduled for June, where a top-10 ranking on the PGA Ghana order of merit grants exemption from pre-qualifying, the PGA Masters is crucial for players both within and outside the top 10.

Top Ghanaian golfers, including Vincent Torgah, Kojo Barni, Augustine Manasseh, Maxwell Owusu Bonsu, Emos Korblah, and Brave Mensah, are expected to compete. The emergence of young talent in the professional ranks adds to the excitement, potentially leading to surprises during the three-day event.

Alhaji Ahmed Padori, Director of Operations for PGA Ghana, expressed his anticipation for a challenging and competitive tournament. Speaking from the UK at the Panshanger Golf Complex after a session with the Akwaaba Society, he noted, “News from Ghana suggests golfers are intensifying their training for the competition. I hope the level continues to improve, as we’ve seen in past events.”
