For the past five years, surgeons from the University Hospital of the West Indies have come together for the annual Caribbean Brain Tumour Charity Golf Classic Tournament at Cinnamon Hill Golf Course in Montego Bay, St James. The annual jazz festival is the perfect opportunity to converge on the tourist Mecca and provide a daytime activity for night-time revellers.

This year, the cocktail party and prize-giving was held along the beach near the golf course and everyone urged organisers to keep the venue as it was so beautiful, comfortable and private. Ian Royal was the overall winner who walked away with the winners trophy, among other prizes. Dr Carl Bruce, who leads a team of some 12 committee members in staging the event, said the money raised was used to purchase equipment for brain tumour surgery at the hospital.

Dr Bruce expressed pleasure at the outcome of the tournament and said he thanked his companion, Mureen James, and the other committee members who were instrumental in planning it all. "The tournament has grown and this year, there was a full field of some 80 players. I am very happy that it has been such a success," Bruce said. Again, Appleton topped the list of sponsors.
