  • VIVENDI TROPHY Continental Europe Vs
    VIVENDI TROPHY Continental Europe vs. Great Britain and Ireland The Duel, 15-18 September, 2011 Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche (France) Press release – 18th May, 2011 In the spirit of Severiano Ballesteros Vivendi today announced that Jean Rene Fourtou, Chairman of the Vivendi Supervisory Board, has suggested to the PGA European Tour that the "Vivendi Trophy with Seve Ballesteros" be renamed to "The Vivendi Seve Trophy", in memory of Severiano Ballesteros who really knew, amongst other things, how to develop and support the spirit of match play and Golf as an all-round game. During the day's press conference, Scott Kelly, Marketing Director of the PGA European Tour emotionally welcomed the change on behalf of the PGA European Tour. The 2011 Vivendi Trophy The Vivendi Trophy takes place every two years, alternating with the Ryder Cup. The Vivendi Trophy 2011 will take place from 15th to 18th September at the Saint-Nom-La- Bretèche Golf Course. Following the success of its 2009 version, the second edition of this great competition, initiated and organised by CANAL+ EVENTS, will once again put the 10 best players in Continental Europe in a head to head with the elite of Great Britain and Ireland. A new champion at the helm Jose Maria Olazabal will succeed Colin Montgomerie as the Ryder Cup 2012 Team Captain. The Spanish champion will then head the Seve Trophy 2011. "Txema" may, like Monty did in 2009, oversee and observe the two teams. This arrival is also highly symbolic: we all remember the achievements of the fearsome pair in the Ryder Cup with Olazabal and Ballesteros.

  • The European Tour Makes Its First Stop at Valderrama | Assetfolio News
    News The European Tour Makes Its First Stop At Valderrama 15/04/2016 Spanish News Andalucía hosts the Open de España for the 11th time - European Tour Five decades after its first visit, the Open de España will return to Andalucía on April 14-17. Real Club Valderrama and the Sergio García Foundation, have joined forces in order to bring this storied event that has been played only ten times previously on Andalusian courses. The first was on 1966 at the neighbouring and newly opened RCG Sotogrande, where Argentina’s Roberto de Vicenzo stole the show. Four years later, RCG Las Brisas (Marbella), another Robert Trent Jones layout, saw a home winner. Ángel Gallardo, current Vice-Chairman of the European Tour, won by two shots over England’s Neil Coles and Ireland’s Christy O’Connor Sr. “I had always dreamt of winning my national Open; that was the most thrilling moment of my career” recalls Gallardo. Nine years passed before the event returned in 1979 to southern Spain at Torrequebrada (Benalmádena, Málaga), a course designed by the recently deceased José Gancedo — who was the leading amateur in the 1970 edition won by Gallardo. South African Dale Hayes triumphed at Torrequebrada, and for the first time, the event had a title sponsor – Benson&Hedges – something unthinkable up to then. Over the last decade, the Open de España has enjoyed the E: [email protected] W: www.assetfolio.com T: +34 952 908 120 support of Reale as its main sponsor.

  • Travelers Championship Joins Pga Tour's Play Yellow Initiative
    CONTACT: Tara Gerber Travelers Championship 860.502.6815 [email protected] TRAVELERS CHAMPIONSHIP JOINS PGA TOUR’S PLAY YELLOW INITIATIVE Special ticket promotion available March 18-24 with net proceeds benefiting Connecticut Children’s Medical Center HARTFORD, Conn., March 13, 2019 – The Travelers Championship today announced that it will participate in Play Yellow, a fundraising initiative launched by the PGA TOUR to generate funds for children’s hospitals across the country. The TOUR’s goal for the campaign – which was unveiled today during a press conference at THE PLAYERS Championship – is to raise $100 million for pediatric care over the next five years. The Play Yellow initiative was inspired by Jack Nicklaus, a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame who holds the record with 18 professional major championship victories. As a way to honor the son of a family friend who died of cancer in 1971, Nicklaus began wearing a yellow shirt during the final round of tournaments. For years, Nicklaus and his wife, Barbara, have focused their fundraising efforts on children’s hospitals. As part of Play Yellow, March 18-24 will be designated as Play Yellow for Children’s Hospitals Week, and the Travelers Championship will offer a special ticket promotion during that time. A set of four One Day Grounds Passes will be available for the reduced price of $150, with net proceeds going to Connecticut Children’s Medical Center. “We are extremely proud to be joining the PGA TOUR’s national Play Yellow campaign, which enables us to support a worthy cause here in Connecticut,” said Travelers Championship Tournament Director Nathan Grube.
