Come Back, the Indonesia Open Tournament Revolves

The Indonesia Open golf tournament will resume in 2022. The event titled Mandiri Indonesia Open 2022 will take place at Pondok Indah Golf Course, Jakarta. The implementation date is August 4-7, 2022.

“This tournament was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic,” said General Chairperson of the Indonesian Golf Association (PB PGI) Murdaya Po in a statement on Wednesday (6/7/2022).

Murdaya Po explained that his party did not hold the Indonesia Open twice in 2020 and 2021. This time, the golf event will provide prizes of up to Rp. 7.5 billion. On that occasion, Murdaya Po hoped that the Indonesia Open 2022 could spur the enthusiasm of golf athletes, both amateur and professional, to return to compete on the international stage. Murdaya Po said that the Mandiri Indonesia Open 2022 was able to bring more foreign golfers to play on various golf courses in Indonesia. “Hopefully it will also provide an interesting spectacle for golf lovers in Indonesia,” he said.

The Indonesia Open has been held since 1974. This tournament is included in the Asian Tour agenda. In the latest edition of the Indonesia Open, in 2019, Argentine golfer Miguel Angel Carballo won. Miguel Angel Carballo bagged the win after 271 at or 17 under par. Miguel Angel Carballo beat South Korean golfer Chang Yi-keun. Chang Yi-keun lost by three strokes to Miguel Angel Carballo.
