THE CARLSBERG GOLF CLASSIC (CGC) returns for its 33rd edition, reaffirming its position as one of Malaysia’s longest-running golf tournaments with 30 qualifying rounds nationwide and more than RM2.7 million worth of prizes up for grabs.

“For over three decades, Carlsberg Golf Classic has stood as a platform that brings the golfing community together – going beyond the game to celebrate the shared passion, friendship and the drive to always be better.
“It truly embodies our Semper Ardens spirit, which means ‘Always Burning’, always striving for excellence, both on and off the green.
“From the first drive to the final putt, we remain committed to creating a #BestWithCarlsberg platform that welcomes and celebrates sportsmanship and passion for the game from across the community,” he said.
Beyond the competition, participants will also be able to enjoy a selection of beverages throughout the tournament season, including Carlsberg Danish Pilsner, Carlsberg Smooth Draught, Connor’s, 1664 Blanc and non-alcoholic brew Somersby Apple 0.0 at participating clubs.
The tournament’s prize lineup includes premium rewards across qualifying rounds and the National Finals, led by Auto Bavaria (BMW), which is offering two BMW 320i models worth RM293,471 each as Hole-in-One prizes at the National Finals.
