The Dubai Sports Council CEO Masters 2024 will take place on the Trump International Golf Course in Damac Hills on January 6, 2024 – the first in a series of 70 amateur events that we will be held in 2024.

The tournament is a part of the council’s initiative to promote golf as a business networking and key tourism tool for the UAE and region.

The Dubai Sports Council CEO Masters is sponsored this year by Thriwe (Banking loyalty program experts – Gold Sponsor) and AARO Middle East, Unique Properties, and Suitsupply (Silver sponsors), The Macallan, eGolf Megastore, MyGolf, GAT Consulting, Papa Johns, Dubai Refreshments and Wellness We Need (Bronze sponsors), with WeTel TV our media partner and several other sponsors expected to add value to the day.

The tournament will again be held in an 18-hole team shambles format, designed to provide an interactive golf and networking experience.

It will conclude with a formal dinner presentation overlooking the Trump course hosted by Saeed Hareb, the Secretary General of Dubai Sports Council. He will address the senior business and government leaders of the UAE to discuss the value of golf both as a business networking and tourism tool for the region.

In addition, cricketing legend Kapil Dev, will be the star attraction at the awards presentation by Thriwe and AARO.
