Chatham Luxury Watches celebrated the successful conclusion of yet another edition of the Omega Trophy from the picturesque fairways of the Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC).
The highly-anticipated annual golf tournament returned for its 3rd run on Saturday 19 of October, with both participants and golfing enthusiasts immersed in a full day of community and sport.
This year the tournament consisted of 46 teams of three playing in the Texas Scramble format across two sessions, all vying for the top prize of not just holding up the trophy, but for an all-expenses-paid trip to the Omega European Masters 2025, set to take place next August at the heart of the Swiss Alps in Crans-Montana.
After an engaging and competitive day of spectacular golf, the deserving winning trio that took home the Omega Trophy was the team of Dulanka Weraduwage, Rohan Fernandez, and Micheal Perera Magala. First runners-up were Tharanga Gunesekara, Saneth Gamage, and Nishantha Perera, with Sameera Ganegoda, Manjula Chandrasoma, and Thushara Rupasinghe having earned the third runners-up spot. Additionally, other prizes meted out were the award for the Longest Drive (Women) which went to D. Senadhira, and the Longest Drive (Men) won by Noordeen Sethwala.
“It’s been really impressive to watch some of Sri Lanka’s top-tier golfers come together to compete for such a coveted prize,” said Chatham Luxury Watches CEO Indrajith Ranawana. “This annual competition has come to be one of the most looked forward to professionally-run tournaments in the local golfing calendar, and we’re encouraged by the volume of registrations we’re seeing with every passing year since the competition’s inception.”
