Special recognitions will be presented for standout performances, including the Longest Drive at the 8th Hole, the Closest to the Pin at the 13 Hole, and the Overall Winner of the tournament.

In addition, a Hole-in-One prize of a Hublot Big Bang Unico Titanium 42mm watch valued at LKR 8 million will be on offer, while the Overall Winner will receive an all-expenses-paid tour to the Maldives, including accommodation at a premier golf resort.
