ROSHN Group, a Public Investment Fund company, will again serve as the official real estate and presenting partner of the LIV Golf League in Jeddah from 13-15 October 2023, according to a press release from ROSHN.
Following on from LIV Golf’s successful Middle Eastern debut at Jeddah’s Royal Greens Golf and Country Club last year, the release said that this year’s tournament in Jeddah will see professionals from around the globe compete in 12 teams of four in front of a diverse, international audience, entertained by a range of activities for attendees of all ages.
Through its partnership with the LIV Golf League, ROSHN meets multiple objectives, from actively realising its corporate social responsibility to strengthening its role in advancing Vision 2030. This alliance highlights ROSHN’s efforts in enhancing the sports sector in Saudi Arabia and fostering a vibrant, interconnected community.
According to the release, GCEO of ROSHN David Grover said: “At ROSHN, we are filled with anticipation for the 2023 edition of the LIV Golf League, and it’s a matter of great pride for us to be the leading partner of this illustrious global sporting spectacle. Facilitating the convergence of the world’s top-tier golfers in the Middle East, the LIV Golf League in Jeddah plays a pivotal role in broadening the horizons of the sport and catalysing the expansion of its enthusiastic fanbase. We are poised for a riveting experience that will, yet again, spotlight the Kingdom as a hub par excellence for world-class events.”
LIV Golf Senior Vice President and Global Head of Partnerships Monica Fee said: “LIV Golf is thrilled to welcome back ROSHN as the presenting partner for the league’s regular-season finale in Jeddah,” adding that “Collaborations like this are delivering opportunities for both players and fans to enjoy this great sport and make a meaningful impact beyond the course, showcasing how golf is a force for good in communities around the world. We look forward to hosting an exciting tournament with support from ROSHN.”
During the LIV Golf event, ROSHN will unveil a pivotal CSR initiative championing inclusivity in sport throughout Saudi Arabia. With the “Golf for the Disabled (LIV Ability)” initiative, a four-month program to introduce golf training and education to individuals with disabilities across Jeddah Governorate. Aiming to set a strong foundation for enduring and inclusive golf engagement, the initiative looks beyond just the LIV Golf Jeddah 2023 event. The essence of this initiative reflects ROSHN’s core values: ensuring opportunity, fostering sustainability, upholding responsibility, and empowering every individual. It stands as a testament to ROSHN’s vision where every Saudi can freely engage in sports of their preference.
ROSHN Senior Manager, Sponsorships and External Events, Talal Alhenaki said: “The LIV Golf League mirrors our ambition to elevate golf to thrilling new horizons. Hand in hand, we’re setting a distinct trajectory for this revered sport, emphasizing innovation, inclusivity, and a relentless spirit of competition.”
ROSHN’s deep-rooted connection with the sports sector in Saudi Arabia exemplifies its passion for fostering unity and camaraderie through sports. ROSHN’s involvement spans from the high-octane Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix to the vibrant rhythms of the ROSHN Saudi League and its proud association with Al-Ittihad Saudi Club, the release said.
