The world’s largest amateur golf tournament, the Turkish Airlines World Golf Cup, has made its debut in Kazakhstan’s capital, Astana.
The tournament, organized by Turkish Airlines, brought together golf enthusiasts at the Golf Club Astana. Despite the city’s short golf season, interest in the sport is growing steadily.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Turkish Airlines Astana General Manager Engin Akbaş said, “Although the golf season here is short due to weather, there is a significant and passionate golfing community in Astana. That’s why we decided to include the city in this year’s tournament for the first time.”
Akbaş added that the event also aims to engage Kazakhstan’s high-profile community, promote Turkish Airlines’ services, and boost brand awareness. “We hope to make the tournament a tradition in Astana in the coming years,” he said.
Winners of the day-long event were awarded during a gala dinner ceremony. Turkish Ambassador to Astana, Mustafa Kapucu, and THY’s Engin Akbaş presented prizes to six players who topped their categories.
Yuan Tian, who claimed first place in Astana, also secured a spot in the grand final to be held in Antalya.
First launched in 2013, the Turkish Airlines World Golf Cup is now held in 117 cities across 73 countries, making it the largest amateur golf tournament in the world.
