Hello, Golf fever!
A historic week for the Dominican Republic with the arrival of the PGA Tour to our soil and the celebration of the fifth edition of the Corales Puntacana Championship. Another challenge faced by the Puntacana Group puts the country on the world golf map at the professional level and that we know will bring an unparalleled tourism promotion.
Every year the event gains stature, and the team led by the marketing director of the Puntacana Group, Manuel Sajour, under the watchful eye of Frank Elías Rainieri, President and CEO of the Puntacana Group, once again has the hard work of carrying out another successful championship for the glory and pride of all Dominicans who know the importance of an event of this magnitude.
The talents of hundreds of employees and volunteers come together so that the event continues to tread the path of success and continues its contribution to tourism in the country.
