Meet Our Golf Operations Team
With the completion of the golf office renovation, our Golf Operations team is now housed alongside our Golf Customer Service team to provide our members and guests with seamless service and support for their golf games.
For those of you who are not familiar with our Golf Operations team, let us you give a quick introduction to our golf crew.
Helming the team is Mr Vigknes Subramani, a familiar face to many at Keppel Club. As a candidate who was handpicked for our Growth and Development Programme, Vigknes has risen through the ranks to become the overall in-charge of golf operations. He is supported by a dedicated team of golf executives. Together, the team works tirelessly behind the scenes to organise exciting golf games and to ensure that everything run smoothly like clockwork.
Here is a rundown of the roles of each executive in the golf operations department:

Mr Durairaj Kannu Pillai (aka Raj)
Golf Executive Raj takes charge of the golf marshals and he is the “Commander” of the golf crew. His team moves around the golf course to monitor the pace of play on the golf course, ensuring that players are not slowed down by those playing before them.
Raj also takes care of buggy maintenance to ensure that the fleet is operating in tip-top condition. During Club events, he is key person in charge of the event’s logistics. As team leader of the marshals, Raj also plans the duty roster of his staff.
Ms May Lim and Ms Maribel Salivio Bragado (aka Bel)
Assisting Vigknes in the planning and organising of golf events are Senior Golf Executive May and Golf Executive Bel.
May brings with her a wealth of golf experience, having worked many years in other golf clubs in Singapore. Bel, who hails from the Philippines, has played golf competitively for many years prior to her career in the golf industry.
At Keppel Club, May and Bel play shared roles in supporting Vigknes in all aspects of planning for a golf event. They assist in processing event registration, preparing prizes, event set-up and scoring.
As proficient and seasoned golfers themselves, both ladies are also responsible for assessing the skills and proficiency of new golfers who wish to acquire a golf handicap. For anything pertaining to handicap test, you can reach out to May or Bel.
In addition to the above duties, May’s portfolio also includes marketing special ad-hoc golf promotions, while Bel takes care of enrolment for our Junior Golf programme.
