We would appreciate your kindly circulating this information to the senior professional golfers / members of your PGA / members of your association and thank you in advance for your kind support and assistance in this matter.
We do apologies for the rather short notice and in the unfortunate event that the invitation to play in the 7th ASM @ Thailand was not provided by us in time and or with adequate advanced warning for your members who might have been interested to have arranged for their participation, so as to avoid disappointment, we are pleased to extend this invitation for up to 3 of your members / countrymen to enter and participate in one or more of the following ASM events to be staged in April and July this year.

Once again I would greatly appreciate your kindly including this information in your planned circular to the senior professional golfers / members of your – PGA / federation / association and again thank you in advance for your kind support and assistance in this matter my friend.
ASM events provide amateur golfers with the opportunity to playing in Pro-Ams alongside senior professional golfers, competing as both individuals and teams, with the leading amateurs going on to contest the Amateur Semi-Finals that are staged during and in conjunction with the ASM professional tournament, providing these leading amateur golfers with a very rare opportunity to pit their wits and skills against some of Australasia’s leading amateurs, whilst competing head to head with the professionals who are getting down to business during the professional tournaments. The leading amateurs from the Semi-Finals go on to compete for the Amateur Championships, teeing off immediately prior to the final round of the professional tournament.
We look forward to hearing from you / your members and to meeting you at one of our events, kind regards,
