The main purpose of Ancora Pro Series Tournaments is to provide a sustainable platform for Indonesian pro players to improve their golfing skills, specifically tournament experience. With total prize money of over Rp 150 million per event, the series provide ample challenge for the pro golfers.
In addition, we also aim to:
- Prepare local players for future international tournaments, such as the Indonesian Presidential Invitation event, an Asian tour event promoted by Ancora Sports.
- Provide ample opportunity for Indonesian players to be known by people at large.
- Promote Indonesia as one of the world’s main golf destinations.
