“Once entries close, the PGA of Australasia and One Asia go through their respective entry lists. Puts them into categories and there’s a cut off line obviously at 120 depending on people’s rankings whether they are above that or below that.”

The winner of the tournament will be walking away with the US$1million prize money.

The Fiji International will be held from the 14th to the 17th of August and will be Fiji’s first internationally broadcast tournament with an audience of over four million viewers in more than 30 countries.
