CEBU, Philippines - If there is one thing that the players and visitors immediately notice when they go to Alta Vista Golf and Country Club in Pardo, Cebu City, it is the spectacular view from the clubhouse and the golf course.

Today, the club hosts The View Invitational 2013, which is AVGCC’s annual member-guest tournament.

Close to 200 teams are taking part in the four-day, 36-hole tournament, which will be using the Stableford Scoring System.  Participants will only be allowed to use three-fourths of their lowest handicap for the period of March to May 2013.

At stake as hole-in-one prizes are -- a car from Hyundai; Php 500,000 from Visayan Surety and AVGCC; a residential lot from Santa Lucia Realty; a golf cart from Club Car; Php 150,000 first bet coupons from Pagcor Casino Filipino; a motorcycle from Norkis Trading; and hotel accommodations from Marco Polo Prince Hong Kong, Marco Polo Plaza Hotel, and Moevenpick Hotel Mactan.

These prizes will be assigned to specific holes during the tournament.

Skygo is also offering a motorcycle as prize for eagle on any of the par-4 holes.

In case more than one player will win a particular hole-in-one or eagle prize, these shall be equally shared.

At stake in the tournament will be specially-made plaques for the team with the lowest gross, lowest net and the top three for the three handicap categories.  There will also be prizes for the lowest gross and lowest net for the seniors as well as the two next best teams based on net scores.

All participants are entitled to get a travel golf bag as giveaway as well as products from Profoods and Shaldan.

The awards ceremony will be held on Sunday at the AVGCC ballroom. 

The tournament committee is headed by club director Vicente Go.

Teams shall play two rounds within the four-day period.  Each team must be composed of a club member and a guest.

Guests without club certified handicaps will play scratch. (PR from www.fullpointcebu.com) (FREEMAN)
