Grupo Mayan Launches Inaugural “Uniting Nations Cup” Golf Tournament at Its Mayan Palace Peninsula de Cortez Course
Grupo Mayan is proud to announce their establishment of the Uniting Nations Cup golf tournament being played on the Peninsula de Cortez golf course, a Jack Nicklaus and Jack Nicklaus II co-design at the Mayan Palace resort in Puerto Peñasco. The Uniting Nations Cup is scheduled to take place annually at the Mayan Palace for the next five years, with strategic planning in place to lift the tournament’s profile with each subsequent year.
The concept of the Uniting Nations Cup (Copa Uniendo Naciones) is to highlight the alliance between the United States and Mexico beyond their commercial and cultural ties, while attempting to one day achieve the international reputation of a tournament similar to the legendary Ryder Cup. Another objective the Uniting Nations Cup sets out to accomplish is the expansion and promotion of the little-known Mexican port destination of Puerto Peñasco along with the Grupo Mayan resorts.
The Uniting Nations Cup will consist of teams competing from PGA Mexico and Southwest Section PGA with the participation of approximately 100 golfers, 20 of which will be professionals (10 Mexican and 10 from the U.S.), along with 40 high caliber amateurs from each country to level the playing field and ensure competitive yet exciting playoffs. Several relatively prominent figures were present when Grupo Mayan announced the Uniting Nations Cup.
The first Uniting Nations Cup at the Grupo Mayan resorts will be held May 12 to 15, 2011.
