Now into its fifth successive season, the Volvo Masters Amateur in Korea, 120 qualifiers from the regional qualifying events now have 22^nd September in their diaries hoping to gain a seat on the plane to Spain and the World Final on 1^st and 3^rd November.

280 Volvo owners set out on the road to Volvo Masters Amateur glory in June and 120 of them have cleared the first hurdle by qualifying for the Volvo Masters Amateur Korean Final, to be staged at the magnificent Anyang Benest Golf Club on Monday 22^nd September 2008.

And, as well as the prospect of an all-expenses-paid golfing adventure of a lifetime to the Volvo Masters Amateur World Final in Spain in early November, with the final round staged at the world-famous Valderrama Golf Club the day after the Volvo Masters champion has won his title on the great golf course, there are some great prizes on offer at the South Korea National Final.

These include a 0.3 Carat diamond necklace by local diamond house DIKS for the first eagle of the final and another for the lucky winner of a Volvo Masters Amateur lottery draw.

In addition, Mizuno Golf Clubs, watches by Skagen and even a Puma golfwear package for the best-dressed male and female is on offer, but the BIG prize will be the two tickets on offer for the 2008 Volvo Masters Amateur World Final.

"Interest has been fantastic again this year and we have some fantastic prizes form our sponsors to whom we are all most grateful," says Jason Koh, Product Manager at Volvo Car Korea, adding, "We are also delighted to be playing our national final at the 7,044-yard, Par-72 Anyang Benest Golf Club because not only is it one of the country's great golf courses but it is also home to the Turfgrass & Environment Research Institute, which ties in perfectly with our quality and environmental care brand values.

Opened in 1968, Anyang Benest Golf Club was voted Number-1 golf club in Korea by Golf Digest Magazine and regularly features in the top-10 courses in Asia and the top-100 in the world.

Fast Fact: The ‘Benest' in Anyang Benest Golf Club's name is an assimilation of ‘best' and nest' because of its unsurpassed quality and the vast range of indigenous birds to whom the golf course is home.
