A merry mix of players belonging to the fields of business here and abroad make up the full 300-strong field of the revival of the Philippine Airlines’ Mabuhay Miles Elite Invitational golf tournament on Monday at the world-class layouts of The Orchard Golf and Country Club in Cavite.
PAL President and Chief Operating Officer Capt. Stanley K. Ng will be among the prominent executives hitting the ceremonial drive before the 7:30 a.m. shotgun start at the Player and Palmer courses.
“It’s our way of giving back to our most valued clients,” said Ng, who has taken up the sport recently. “Golf is also a way for us to get in touch, spend time with them and for all of the players to have the chance to get to know each other.”
The event was forced into a hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic and its return this year will be its 27th staging overall as the Philippines’ top airline dangles attractive prizes while fostering friendly competition and camaraderie.
