Nikon and MasterCard: priceless golfing experience

Nikon has joined forces with MasterCard to offer golfers a once in a lifetime chance to play in an exclusive golf day at Muirfield, the venue of the 2013 Open Championship.

Any MasterCard cardholder who purchases a Nikon COOLSHOT Laser Rangefinder, between now and May 30, has the chance to win two spots to play at the Open Championship venue on June 20.

The golf day will be the final round of golf played at the venue before it shuts to begin its Open preparations.

15 lucky winners will be able to bring a friend, and will also receive two night's free accommodation at a five-star hotel and an invitation to the R&A Gala Dinner, which will take place during the stay. Plus a former Open Champion will be joining the winners on the course.

Tim Hunnable, Commercial Manager Nikon UK, said, "This prize represents every golfer's dream and we are delighted to be able to team up with fellow Open patron MasterCard to offer our customers such a superb opportunity."

Paul Trueman, Head of Marketing, UK & Ireland, MasterCard Europe, added, "It's great to be able to create compelling offers, experiences and priceless access around the most historic tournament in golf.

"To play with a former Open Champion at Muirfield is one of the most unique opportunities we will give to our cardholders this year, in partnership with Nikon. It is one not to be missed!"

The Nikon COOLSHOT Laser Rangefinder can be purchased at www.nikongolf.co.uk. Customers then need to register their purchase before May 31, on www.nikongolf.co.uk/mastercard to be in with a chance of winning.
