The Sandy Lane resort and golf course will host the World Cup of golf next December.
The event will feature the world’s top 18 golfers competing for a purse of $3,3-million, the organisers said on Friday.
Tiger Woods was married at the Sandy Lane resort last year.
”We chose Barbados because it is a great golfing destination and it has many of the attributes we are looking for,” said Jack Warfield, vice-president of the World Golf Championship.
Twenty-five teams, including the top three teams from each of the World Cup qualifying matches in Mexico and Asia, will compete in the tournament from December 4 to 10.
Last month, Stephen Dodd and Bradley Dredge of Wales won the World Cup, a stroke-play event that completes the World Golf Championships season. – Sapa-AP
