SMBC Singapore Open cancelled until 2022

The golf tournament has been traditionally held every January.

The SMBC Singapore Open golf tournament will be held off until next year, the organizers announced.

“While it is truly a shame that the tournament won’t be held this year, we have been involved in the discussions throughout the planning process and are fully supportive of the difficult decision that has been made by Sportfive. We shall all look forward to the return of the SMBC Singapore Open in 2022,” said Ross Tan, president of the Singapore Golf Association.

The US$1m event, jointly sanctioned by the Asian Tour and Japan Golf Tour Organisation, had been traditionally held every January on the Serapong Course at Sentosa Golf Club.

Last year, SMBC Singapore Open took place from January 16-19 with 2016 Olympic bronze medalist Matt Kuchar winning the 18-under par total.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
