Driving spectator demand is the high profile line up of professional golfers who will be contesting for the line's share of the $2m purse and the chance to take home the coveted 'Falcon' trophy.

This year's glittering line-up includes: England's Paul Casey - the 2007 Abu Dhabi Golf Championship defending champion; Australian Adam Scott, ranked sixth in the World; Open Champion Padraig Harrington, the World number seven; Scottish maestro Colin Montgomerie; Swedish number one, Henrik Stenson and Luke Donald, the current World number 17 who is widely regarded as having one of the best swings in golf.

'This tournament has gone from strength-to-strength since its inception in 2006 and this event is no exception. The star studded line-up, the improved course facilities and the tournament's growing recognition on the international stage should see the largest spectator turnout to date,'



said Peter German, Executive Tournament Director, Abu Dhabi Golf Championship - which is organised by the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority (ADTA).

Tickets for the Championship remain at 2007 prices. Children under 18 will be admitted free when accompanied by an adult. Car parking will be free during the Championship.
