PGA Golf Tour World Number 23 Brandt Snedeker

World Number 23 Brandt Snedeker who is an eight time winner on the PGA Golf Tour will be part of this year’s Fiji International at Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course.

US based Snedeker’s most recent victory came in February this year in America.

Snedeker says he will try not to get too distracted by the beauty of Fiji as he would love to win another golf tournament this year.

The Fiji International is fast earning a positive reputation amongst the best golfers in the world with 2015 champion, Matt Kuchar’s positive endorsement helping lure Snedeker to the Pacific paradise.

Snedeker says Kuchar returned from the Fiji International saying such fantastic things about the tournament that he decided he needed to visit Fiji.

Snedeker says Kuchar told him all about the beauty and challenge of the Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course but also the friendly people and the fun things to do away from the golf course, so he is also bringing his family.

The Fiji Golf International will be played at Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course from 6th‑9th October.

400 million homes around the globe will watch the 20 hours of live broadcast.
