BMW Golf Cup National Final makes return at Tanah Merah

Singapore

IT was a golf game where both health and safety were the main priorities.

After dropping off my golf bag at the buggy area last Friday, I was making my way towards the changing room when I was directed to a far corner of Tanah Merah Country Club's Tampines clubhouse. Greeting me that afternoon were frontline workers from a Ministry of Health-approved Covid-19 test provider who welcomed me into a room where golfers were undergoing pre-event testing. It took about 30 minutes for the results of the Antigen Rapid Test to come in, and the word "negative" flashed on my phone to give me the all-clear to play in the BMW Golf Cup National Final - which was back on the annual golf calendar after an enforced break last year.
