    Pro Golf Tour – Press release upon the 2020 season 1 July 2020 Seven more tournaments this year: the Pro Golf Tour continues the 2020 season Good news from the Pro Golf Tour head office in Diedorf/Germany: seven more tour- naments are expected to be held this year. The next step will be the Polish Open 2020 at the Gradi Golf Club in Prusice in Poland, now scheduled for 29 to 31 July. Diedorf – “We are very happy to finally have good news about the rest of the Pro Golf Tour 2020 season,” says Peter Zäh, the managing director of the Pro Golf Tour. “We will probably be able to hold seven more Order of Merit tournaments this year, which means that in this year marked by corona, 13 of the originally planned 20 tournaments will end up in the Pro Golf Tour books.” The Polish Open 2020 at the Gradi Golf Club in Poland, which was postponed to 29 to 31 July, marks the start of the season’s continuation. The defending champion there is the Czech Ondrej Lieser, who won the title last year with 19 under par and a record margin of seven strokes, after three rounds on the par-70 course. The players will then compete at the Raiffeisen Pro Golf Tour St. Pölten at the GC St. Pölten in Austria from 4 to 6 August; in 2019, the later overall winner of the Pro Golf Tour, the German Hurly Long, celebrated his first tournament victory there. Afterwards, the sportsmen will move on to the first tournament of the 2020 season in Germany: the professionals will compete on the picturesque fairways and well-known fast greens of GC Starnberg near Munich in Bavaria from 17 to 19 August.
