Indonesia Open (golf)
The Indonesia Open is the country's premier golf tournament and traditionally played in the capital, Jakarta. It has had a varied and storied history, but in 2012, for the first time, is co-sanctioned by the OneAsia Tour and the Japan Golf Tour as part of a three-year deal that boosts world ranking points for the participants. The prize fund for 2012 is US$1,000,000 and the event takes place from March 22-25 at Emeralda Golf and Country Club, south of Jakarta. It is also the opening event of the OneAsia Tour's 2012 season.
The title sponsor from 2005 to 2010 and again in 2012 is the Jakarta government's "Enjoy Jakarta" tourism portal.
From 2005 to 2009, the tournament was co-sanctioned by the Asian Tour and the European Tour.

Famous quotes containing the word open:
“Hail ye small sweet courtesies of life, for smooth do ye make the road of it! like grace and beauty which beget inclinations to love at first sight; ‘tis ye who open this door and let the stranger in.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
