Shanghai/Haikou. On December 2, 2017, the 7th Porsche Golf Cup China Final wrapped up successfully in Haikou. Organised by Porsche China, the Porsche Golf Cup is a series of world-class amateur golf tournaments held every year since its inauguration in 2011. Widely acclaimed by avid golfers and Porsche enthusiasts, this event is supported by Porsche Centres across China and is tailor-made for Porsche owners in the country. It brings together like-minded Porsche fans and golf enthusiasts, and delivers the brand’s concept of premium lifestyle and passion for the sport.

“2017 has been a fantastic year for Porsche, both on and off the track. We are committed to delivering not only the best sports cars, but also premium lifestyle experiences that bring our customers and fans closer to each other and to the brand,” said Mr. Franz Jung, President and CEO of Porsche China. “Golf and Porsche uphold similar values: Precision, performance, balance and technology are at the core of the brand and the game of golf. This year, we’re not only looking for the best players, but also for exceptional individuals who personify the values of Porsche.”

Since its tee-off this May, Porsche Golf Cup 2017 has attracted a large number of golf aficionados. After a series of challenging Qualifying Tournaments held across top-level golf courses in China, around 59 skilled golfers won the opportunity to participate in the China Final.
