In addition, there are yearly international events namely the PETRONAS Formula One motor race, the PGA sanctioned golf events CIMB Classic Golf and the Maybank Malaysian Open which had seen the likes of top golfers like Tiger Wood and Rory McIlroy, to the delights of local and international spectators.
Malaysia offers many venue options for a wide variety of sporting events.
