BMW India Dealerships in these cities will organize the tournament from 24 October 2009 onwards.

An exclusive, invitation-only event, the BMW Golf Cup International 2009 is an amateur golf tournament series designed for customers, prospects and opinion leaders and provides the right mix for an exclusive social interaction.

India is one of 50 participating countries where 100,000 players will compete across 1,000 qualifying tournaments. The finalists will then converge at the BMW Golf Cup International 2009 World Final to be held from 1 to 6 March 2010 in Fancourt Golf Resort, George, South Africa.

Mr. Peter Kronschnabl, President BMW India said, "BMW is one of the biggest supporters of golf and has helped foster amateur golf on a global basis. Therefore, it is with great pride that we officially introduce BMW Golf Cup International 2009 in India. Last year we concluded the BMW Golf Cup International 2008 with Rudratej Singh from Mumbai winning the 2nd position in the Men's Category A. We hope to see similar success from this year's participants, and are proud to host one of the leading amateur tournaments in the country that will attract not just our customers, prospects and opinion leaders but also other patrons of the game."

Dealers from the target cities will identify amateur golfers amongst BMW owners or prospective buyers who would be interested in participating in the tournament. The tournaments will be held in accordance with the rules of the respective local golf club.

The BMW Golf Cup International 2009 will have three categories, A (for handicaps up to 12), B (for handicaps 13 - 28) and Ladies Category (for handicaps up to 28). The winners, runners-up and second runners-up of the individual handicap categories qualify for the national final. The winners in each of the three handicap categories of the national final qualify to take part in the world final of BMW Golf Cup International 2009.
