Rosewood golf tournament raises $50,000 for Bermuda cancer centre

The Rosewood Cup, a golf tournament held at Tucker’s Point Golf Club last month, raised more than $50,000 for charity.

Sponsored by Rosewood Hotels, Gosling’s, BermudAir and Skyport, the event was characterised by competitive play, community support and exclusive auction items, with money raised donated to PALS.

“Pals is an esteemed organisation with a mission to provide critical care and resources to cancer patients across Bermuda,” said Andrew Archibald, managing director at Rosewood Bermuda.

“The $50,000 raised through this year’s Rosewood Cup will directly impact the lives of patients and their families. This achievement reflects the strong partnerships we’ve built with our sponsors and the unwavering support from the local community.”

The 2024 Rosewood Cup hosted 64 players over two days with Jeff Amaral and Robert Mason winning the tournament with 123 points and receiving the first prize of luxurious travel and accommodation at The Carlyle, a Rosewood hotel, with round-trip BermudAir business class tickets. The successful pair will also get the opportunity to select the 2025 Rosewood Cup charity.

The Rosewood Cup held several initiatives to raise money including a silent auction with 100 per cent of the proceeds being donated.

The silent auction featured exclusive stays and transportation to several luxury properties, including Rosewood Baha Mar, Rosewood Washington D.C., Rosewood London, Rosewood Vienna, Rosewood Munich, and the newly opened Rosewood Schloss Fuschl.

Auction packages ranged from $1,600 to $35,000 and included enticing offerings such as a Rosewood European Adventure and a two-night stay at Rosewood Washington D.C. with round-trip flights from BermudAir.

Rosewood Bermuda also announced their sponsorship of 13-year-old female golfer Darina Betschart in the Bermuda Golf Association’s 2024 Fall Junior Golf Programme, which provides unlimited access to the Tuckers Point golf course and practice facilities.

During the tournament, the club also announced an exclusive distribution partnership with Renegade Golf, a pioneering golf ball company, making Tucker’s Point the first international venue to distribute the Renegade Mbu golf ball.
