Twenty three teams of four players competed in this 18 hole best-two-from-four format with Nasa Multiplex Team 1 of Adam Chevin, Geoff Pontefract, Derek Robson and Graeme Robson winning with an impressive 13 under par score of 85 Stableford points. Runners-up were the Alec team on 81 points, while third and fourth - also on the same score - were DG Jones International and Turner Construction International.

At the prize presentation, Emaar Dubai CEO Richard Rodriguez, who made the presentation, said: "We thank all our industry friends for their generous support of such a worthwhile cause. This is the third Emaar Development Charity Golf Day and our three year total charity contribution is in excess of Dhs1.7m ($463,000).

"All the proceeds of the day will be distributed to various charities by the Al Maktoum Foundation. It was extra special for all the prize winners to be present at the presentation and we thank everyone, both team and hole sponsors for their participation."
