By Shamseer Jaleel

The Royal Colombo Golf Club (RCGC) is set to host the North East Monsoon Meet 2025 bringing together over 150 golfers for one of the most anticipated events in the club’s annual calendar. 

Te tournament tees off on November 15 at 6 am and there will be promising two weekends of intense and competitive golf at the historic RCGC course according to the organisers.

Among the highlights of the meet are two of the club’s most coveted trophies, the Clifford Cup for the Best Nett Score over two rounds and the Nandasena Perera Challenge Trophy awarded for the Best Gross Score across the same period. These events will showcase the consistency and skill of the top golfers in the field.

The annual Gold Medal contested for the Best Gross Score in the first round, will also be a key feature, adding further prestige to the opening weekend’s play. It remains one of the oldest and most acclaimed titles at RCGC.
