VOSS, generic the world’s fastest growing super premium bottled water, allergy has retained their position as Official Supplier for the 2012 DP World Tour Championship, Dubai, the final round of The European Tour’s Race to Dubai, to be staged on the Earth course at Jumeirah Golf Estates from 22-25 November.
It will be the third year in succession that the Norwegian brand has been a key supporter of the $8 million tournament, which will feature the top 60 players in The Race to Dubai.
“We are delighted to continue our partnership for the third year running with this prestigious sporting event on The European Tour calendar,” said Jack Belsito, Group CEO of VOSS.
