Last updated:
Amateur golfers are being offered the chance to compete alongside several legends of the game when the Willow Senior Golf Classic begins on August 26 at Hanbury Manor, a Marriott Golf and Country Club, in Ware, Hertfordshire.
The alliance-formatted event – the first of its kind on the European Senior Tour – allows club golfers to put their skills to the test alongside several Tour pros during the main tournament days, August 26-28.
Entries cost £4,000 per individual place, and there’s also the chance to play in two pro-am days preceding the Willow Senior Golf Classic at £1,250 per team (three players per team). These will take place from August 24-25.
All proceeds from the European Senior Tour event will go to Willow, the only national charity working with seriously ill young adults aged 16 to 40 to provide uplifting and unforgettable Special Days,
Willow Life President and co-founder, Bob Wilson, commented: “What an exciting opportunity to play golf alongside celebrities and professional golfers alike and be part of this prestigious Senior Tour. And at the same time raising much needed funds for Willow, enabling us to help many more seriously ill young adults and their loved ones.”
Andy Stubbs, Managing Director of the European Senior Tour, added: “We are delighted to be able to add another event on English soil to the 2016 Senior Tour schedule, but we are also delighted to be able to support Willow and help highlight the fantastic work they do.
“Hanbury Manor Marriott Hotel and Country Club is a superb venue for a Senior Tour event and collectively we look forward to working together to promote Willow and raise funds, for what is a very worthy cause.”
Entries for the Willow Senior Golf Classic and the two pro-am days are strictly limited, so golfers are advised to book promptly by contacting events@willowfoundation.org.uk.
