Montréal, November 27, 2024 - Golf Québec is proud to have attracted the interest of over 5,000 golf enthusiasts across the province for this great contest, offering one lucky participant the chance to discover the wonders of Portugal while having the pleasure of playing golf.

 

With 5,128 participants, this contest gave golf lovers from all over Québec the chance to try their hand at this exceptional experience. Over several weeks, participants were able to register for a chance to win this incredible trip. For 4 weeks, a daily pre-finalist was announced by Max Lalonde on BMP Sports, for a total of 20 pre-finalists who were then invited to spend a day golfing at the Club de golf St-Anicet. At the end of the day, the number of finalists was reduced to 5. Finally, at the ACGQ meritas gala event, the grand prize winner was announced: Gilles Bouchard was the lucky winner of a 4-person trip to Portugal.
