The Oman Air Golf Classic 2013 was worked off on 10 and 11 August at the Victoria Golf and Country Resort in Digana, Kandy, with Andrew Udeshi emerging the overall winner of the trophy, while Martin Miller emerged the runner-up in a tournament which had to be decided by a tie breaker.

Udeshi clinched the trophy by making a final combined two-round score of 82 with a handicap of 14. Miller with a handicap of 20 also made a combined nett score of 82, forcing the tournament committee to implement the tie breaker system of counting back on the back nine holes. Udeshi was declared winner with a slightly more consistent performance of 18:39 over Miller’s 18:38. Conducted over the course of two days, the Oman Air Golf Classic 2013 saw the participation of over 75 golfers from Sri Lanka, Australia and the Middle East.
