Coca-Cola branded flags and banners were displayed around the Club’s Montgomerie championship golf course for the duration of the final competition of the series and the evening was rounded off with a prize presentation ceremony in the Club’s Members’ Lounge where Adam Dutson, the Royal Golf Club’s Tournament Coordinator, was on hand to present the prizes on behalf of Coca-Cola.
