Wonderful two days at the DP Golf in Dubai. Despite the storm that went through Thursday night to golf on Friday was fantastic and the course looked great. Sunday the atmosphere was great and lovely to see Nicolai Hojgaard win.
The golf was great.
Parking directions were absolutely appalling!!
I could not fault the golf course. The staff were excellent; the water dispensers were fantastic and there were plenty of food and refreshment options. My only criticism related to the shuttle bus service from the Jumeirah Golf Estates metro station. The shuttles left the station (and the course) every 30 minutes; but I feel every 15 minutes would have been more appropriate - especially from the course. Overall a great event, extremely well managed.
Event very well organized. Shuttle bus to Metro very much appreciated
Had a fantastic day with oasis tickets. Walked the course and saw some amazing golf.
Had 2 great days at event, was nice to get close to the players.
My wife has a knee problem, so it would be good to be able to rent a folding chair.
Very nice event, which i enjoyed with my family, especially my 13 year who is dreaming of playing and winning the event one day
I had a blast at the Phoenix Open earlier this year. The atmosphere at the 16th hole i.e Coliseum was electric - more like a rock concert than a golf tournament!!! The crowd was rowdy and energy was off the charts. The other holes were a more traditional golf experience but still great.
The weather was perfect and were plenty of food and drink options. They also did a great job with recycling and keeping the place clean - its in the name 😄
The only downside was the parking but it's not uncommon at big events. I'll be back next year!
Timber Tech is a wonderful senior tour event. I enjoy watching the players. Plenty of viewing areas. I always want to play the course after watching a tournament. It inspires me to play better. I plan on attending next year and beyond.
Loved this event and was so happy to see it was open to the public this year (was not last year as I recall)
We were able to get so close to the players, even during the round (usually only got this close at Practice rounds of other events). Some of the great "old names" of golf were playing.
Everything about the event was 1st class.
Limited access in getting around. Shuttles were posted, but not to be found. (no schedule, etc.)
.
We were only able to get tickets to the Corona VIP tent which had No food available. We had to walk to get food.... for a person with walking disabilities, this is challenging.
Overall, it was a wonderful day at a beautiful venue!
I'll look for other venues next year but I definitely won't miss this.
Unlike the British Open or any golf tournaments in US you have to have a japan cellphone to get kind of verification before purchasing the tickets. Sayonara Japan golf tournament! Thank you!
Good to have a first experience in Japan golf tournament.
It was fun, hope to play there
🏒KOOL Fantastic all around G🕰️LF course Oct 16-22 2023.
I am not sure I can give you a great review because I was a volunteer for 5 days and fan for only one. However, I think it is a great golfing event which is enjoyed by many people. I do have a question? Most of the sponsor for this American PGA event comes from Japan. Why not get some support from Amazon, Google or many other American Companies. Not sure if they want more people to attend, but I think they can reduce the price of the entry fee and add a transportation fee of 1,000 Yen for those 18 and over and 500 Yen for any age below for rides from train stations only. Bus tickets must be paid in advance and nonrefundable. The process for getting tickets seems a little difficult for me. Lastly, I would get a better selection of food vendors.
Very difficult for a non Korean speaker to get information about the event. I e best place to stay, if shuttle buses were running and where to catch them.
Agree with not enough ease of access nor seating areas outside the main arena. Outlying seating on various holes should be provided. This has been a common and reoccurring issue on all LIV golf events we have attended.
Entry requirements of NO food or Drink was NOT communicated on our tickets and spoilt our visit.
It's a little difficult to not be over critical when the event was so badly affected by the weather. Having attended before the set-up at Carnoustie was as good as previous, with staff very helpful and scores up-dated regularly and clearly. I did find in a couple of places bottle necks for spectators particularly around the 9th tee, 12th green and 13th tee having to turn round against the flow to move on. The was a distinct lack of toilet facilities actually on the course and only one refreshment point at the 10th green. My main criticism was not getting early enough up-dates on play when the weather hit on Saturday 7 & Sunday. The website seemed to take far to long in advising when and if play would start or not. I was also puzzled why spectators were not encouraged to attend on Monday. I was in accommodation in Carnoustie but leaving for home that day and didn't want to travel to St Andrews thus incurring a difficult route home.
Despite the negative bits a great tournament and a huge 'well done' to the Greenstaff in getting play possible.
Clearly the inclement weather and consequent 2 day postponement was not the fault of the organisers but the communication to the fans was poor. We spent hours on our mobiles stuck in cafes and hotels waiting for updates. I think in future you should direct the fans to a particular site that will provide you with the updates. We attended Kingsbarns on the Saturday morning and no one knew what was happening. There was no real sheltering areas and hot drinks for the public were not available.
Disgraceful Treatment. Tried for over a year to return tickets. Sent dozens of emails to all parts of Ryder Cup. Not one reply not a single one UNTIL three months out when a general email finally arrived telling me they were non-refundable. I lost nearly £2k on tickets. Would have been my 4th Ryder. Never again.
