The inaugural Ras Al Khaimah Golf Challenge will see the European Challenge Tour, sponsored by Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority, return to the UAE this year.

The event will be hosted at Al Hamra Golf Club from October 26 to 29. This is the first time the European Challenge Tour has visited Ras Al Khaimah and will be one of the emirate’s top sporting events in 2016.

The tournament, with a prize fund of $350,000 up for grabs, will be sanctioned locally by the Emirates Golf Federation.

Haitham Mattar, CEO of Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority, says: 'Hosting the European Challenge Tour is part of our commitment to golf tourism in the emirate and highlights the importance we are placing on the sport in 2016 and beyond.'
