**Sailing to Victory: The Unveiling of the IGY Yachts and Golf Tournament**
Mark your calendars for December 13, 2024, as the world of luxury experiences a transformational moment with the inaugural IGY Yachts and Golf Tournament. Bringing together the prestige of yachting and the sophistication of golf, this first-of-its-kind event promises to elevate the standards for luxury lifestyle experiences. From the IGY Marina’s Yacht Club Isle De Sol in St. Maarten to the iconic Aurora Anguilla Golf Club, this tournament expertly blends elite leisure with unparalleled hospitality.
### The Vision: Redefining Luxury Events
Spearheaded by Brian Deher, Regional Director of IGY Marinas, the tournament represents a bold vision of luxury and community. “Our aim is to merge two elite passions—yachting and golf—into an unforgettable experience,” shared Deher, encapsulating the event’s essence. This initiative goes beyond traditional sporting outings, offering participants an exclusive celebration of world-class design, networking opportunities, and serene leisure.
The event will commence at IGY Marina’s Yacht Club Isle De Sol, a premium yachting destination in St. Maarten, renowned for its 40 superyacht berths and unmatched sophistication. From there, attendees will embark on a journey to Anguilla, immersing themselves in a purposefully curated day of competition and collaboration.
### Legendary Golf Amidst Natural Beauty
The venue for the tournament, the Aurora Anguilla Golf Club, is a true testament to the fusion of sport and art. Owned by business magnate Richard Schulze, the Par 72, 18-hole course has undergone an ambitious transformation since its acquisition in 2020. Designed by the legendary Greg Norman, the course features cutting-edge Latitude 36 Bermudagrass for pristine fairways, TifEagle greens, and the addition of Avalon Links for an engaging short-game experience.
Add to this the spectacular views of Rendezvous Bay. “The Aurora Anguilla course is built to not only challenge players but also enchant them with its beauty,” remarked Norman. Anchored by Schulze’s pursuit of innovation and Norman’s impeccable design expertise, this location is as much a centerpiece as the tournament itself.
Scott Delong, General Manager of Golf Operations at Aurora Anguilla, noted, “Partnering with IGY Marinas allows us to showcase this exceptional venue to an audience that might not have otherwise discovered it.” The collaboration underscores how strategic alliances can reimagine leisure and open doors to new experiences.
### A Day of Sophistication and Connection
The IGY Yachts and Golf Tournament is much more than just a game. Highlighting IGY’s dedication to delivering white-glove service, the day concludes with a luxurious awards ceremony and reception at the exclusive “Anchor Bar” at Yacht Club Isle De Sol in St. Maarten. This premium venue, overlooking tranquil Simpson Bay, creates the perfect backdrop for participants to unwind, celebrate, and establish new connections.
For non-golfers, the tournament doesn’t fall short of entertainment. Guests are invited to explore Anguilla’s pristine beaches, take part in water adventures, or simply enjoy a leisurely lunch while soaking in the island’s natural beauty. The event ensures every attendee finds their own slice of indulgence.
### A New Era in Luxury Lifestyle
The IGY Yachts and Golf Tournament marks the beginning of what promises to be a groundbreaking series of experiences. IGY Marinas plans to expand the concept to a global scale, with venues like Ibiza, Miami, Cabo San Lucas, and the futuristic Sindalah Island in Saudi Arabia lined up for future tournaments. For yacht and golf enthusiasts, this creates endless opportunities to blend their passions while exploring world-class destinations.
### Your Invitation to Exclusivity
Priced at $270 for golfers and $85 for non-golfers, the event offers exceptional value for a meticulously curated day of sport, leisure, and celebration. Whether you’re perfecting your swing on a masterfully designed course or relaxing with a cocktail by the marina, this tournament promises an unforgettable experience that blends elegance, camaraderie, and adventure.
True luxury lies in the seamless merging of passions, and IGY Marinas is carving a new path for those who seek the extraordinary. With the inaugural IGY Yachts and Golf Tournament, December 2024 promises a defining moment for those who wish to redefine how they experience leisure and luxury.
