(Kaieteur Sports) – The excitement is palpable as the DSB Suriname Invitational officially tees off today, bringing together some of the region’s best golfers for a weekend of fierce competition and camaraderie. Representing the Lusignan Golf Club (LGC), Team Guyana is ready to make a strong statement on Suriname’s picturesque and challenging course.
LGC Grounds Superintendent Brian Hackett, who is among the competitors, expressed optimism about the team’s readiness and prospects.
“It’s great to be here. The Guyanese team is all pumped and ready, and we’re expecting to do well. We had a solid practice session and were pleased with what we saw. We’re confident about some strong performances from our players. We’ve brought some of our best—Patrick Prashad, Patanjilee Persaud, Troy Cadogan, Carlos Adams, Shanella London, and myself and many of whom made the podium last year and are determined to repeat that success.”
The Lusignan Golf Club will be proudly represented by Carlos Adams, Rakesh Harry, Mohanlall Dinanauth, Robert Hanoman, Mourice Solomon, Avinash Persaud, Arnal Deo, Patanjallie Persaud, David Harry, Patrick Prashad, Chet Bowling, Mike Mangal, Lakeram Ramsundar, Orson Fergson, Troy Cadogan, Vishal Dhani, Maxim Mangra, Keshan Bacchus, Bridgelall Harry, Vassishtdeo Lakeraj-Chandra, Brian Hackett, and Eureka Giddings.
The tournament unfolds at the Paramaribo Golf Club, a course renowned for its lush fairways, subtle elevation changes, and strategically placed bunkers. Surrounded by mature trees and bordered by serene waterways, the course is as beautiful as it is demanding, testing players’ focus, precision, and course management on every hole. For many golfers, mastering its fast, rolling greens is as much a mental challenge as a technical one.
With a blend of experience, youthful energy, and unwavering team spirit, the Guyanese contingent is ready to take on the challenge and proudly fly their nation’s flag on foreign soil. As play gets underway, golf fans back home will be keeping a close watch, hoping to see familiar names once again grace the podium and bring glory to the Lusignan Golf Club and to Guyana.
