championship spirit. The team at Topwin are looking forward to creating a unique championship experience for
all of our participants.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of our partners for supporting the grown and development of the IJGT Tour. Over the past four years the tour has from 10 events in 2011 to nearly 30 events in

In addition to playing in both the Asian Tournament of Champions and our USA Tournament of Champions
our tournament winners have been offered exemptions in Japan LPGA, Japan PGA Tour and European Challenge Tour events as well as had the opportunity to participate in golf clinics with Tiger Woods & Rory McIlroy.
These incredible experiences are a testament to the growth and success of the tour and the hard work that
our tournament partners have invested in the tour. We are looking forward to offering more unique opportunities as the tour continues to grow.
We are also excited and happy to announce our partnership with Bishop’s Gate Golf Academy (BGGA) in
