The motion

That the Parliament recognises that, for the first time in the nine-year history of the World Golf Awards, Scotland has been awarded the ultimate accolade of Best Golf Destination in the World; understands that golfing destinations across the globe attended the prestigious annual World Golf Award gala ceremony in Abu Dhabi on 15 November 2022; notes that the World Golf Awards is part of the World Travel Awards and serves to celebrate and reward excellence in golf tourism, with winners chosen by tour operators, media and golf fans from across the world; understands that Scotland’s first win of the night came during the Best Golf Destination in Europe category, followed by the top recognition of Best Golf Destination in the World, a unique double, and, it understands, a first in the history of the awards; believes that both awards acknowledge and celebrate the quality of Scotland as a golfing destination and, as the industry continues to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, everything Scotland has to offer to golf fans, and congratulates Wilkinson Golf on being named Scotland’s Best Inbound Tour Operator, and Prestwick Golf Club, which took the title of Scotland’s Best Golf Club.
