This announcement marks the latest development in a
long-standing relationship between Sentosa Golf Club and Toro. The
club has utilized Toro’s proven technology for more than two
decades, including support during globally televised events like
the SMBC Singapore Open and HSBC Women’s World Championship.
As part of the agreement, Toro will provide a total package of
equipment and irrigation solutions to support all areas of
maintenance at the club. The package includes a range of hybrid and
electric equipment, as well as battery-powered landscape tools —
all focused on reducing engine exhaust emissions and promoting
overall sustainability.
Sentosa Golf Club also has 36 holes of Toro irrigation,
including Toro® INFINITY® Sprinklers and a Lynx® System including
satellite technology, in addition to Toro Turf Guard® wireless soil
monitoring to provide in-field data. The Lynx system provides
precision water management with features designed to help reduce
water usage.
Toro’s hybrid and electric equipment and water-saving irrigation
systems align with the club’s dedication to sustainability. Named
‘World’s Best Eco-Friendly Golf Facility’ for the second
consecutive year in 2021, Sentosa Golf Club is recognized worldwide
for its commitment to the environment. The club pledged to become
the world’s first carbon-neutral golf club by 2022 through
initiatives to manage its carbon, water and waste footprint.
“We’re looking forward to bringing our fleet into the future
with Toro and Jebsen & Jessen,” said Andrew Johnston, General
Manager and Director of Agronomy at Sentosa Golf Club. “It’s
important to us to work with partners who not only share our
commitment to the environment, but also support our mission to
consistently deliver a world-class playing experience. We treat
every day like a tournament day, and we know we can expect that
level of excellence from Toro.”
Beyond a new fleet of irrigation and course maintenance
equipment, the partnership agreement includes support from the
technical service team at Jebsen & Jessen and regional support
from The Toro Company. An on-site Toro service manager will be
based at the club, establishing a state-of-the-art workshop that
will serve as a model for Toro.
Toro also plans to base a centre of excellence at Sentosa Golf
Club to support and educate regional clients and staff on the
latest products, technology and service developments. With this
initiative, Toro joins The R&A and the Asian Tour in making
Sentosa a key base in the region. Both The R&A and the Asian
Tour have offices at the club.
The partnership agreement with Sentosa Golf Club comes as Toro
begins its 108th year in the golf industry, bringing more than a
century of expertise and innovative solutions to the partnership.
“This is an historic opportunity for The Toro Company to partner
with one of the most respected clubs in Asia and support their
mission of carbon neutrality,” said Richard Olson, President and
Chief Executive Officer of The Toro Company. “I’ve witnessed
Sentosa Golf Club’s passion for the environment first-hand, and
it’s an exciting time to work them on implementing the latest Toro
innovations and technology.”
“Sustainability is not a new concept for The Toro Company,”
Olson continued. “It’s deeply rooted in our purpose to provide
customers with real solutions that are both environmentally
responsible and operationally sustainable.”
“As the first industrial conglomerate in Southeast Asia to
achieve full carbon neutrality, we take great pride in the fact
that we share a common mission with Sentosa and Toro in reducing
our impact on the environment,” added Philipp Hoffmann, Regional
Director of Jebsen & Jessen Technology Turf & Irrigation.
“We look forward to supporting the club as they provide world-class
golfing experiences, as well as in their sustainability
efforts.”
