Tee Times Prestige Tournament: A Celebration of Golf

Posted on by

From November 21st to 23rd, the 7th Edition Tee Times Prestige Tournament took place in the golfing paradise of the Algarve, joining 60 players for three unforgettable days of fun, competition, and camaraderie. Organised by Tee Times Golf Agency, the event celebrated the very best of the game in Portugal, recently crowned (once again) the World’s Best Golf Destination at the 2024 World Golf Awards.

This year’s tournament took players to three of Portugal’s most iconic golf designs. The journey began at the stunning Laranjal Golf Course, where Hazel Brown secured the first-round win. Day two brought golfers to the breathtaking Monte Rei North Course, where Paul Longman emerged victorious. Finally, the event concluded at the prestigious Quinta do Lago North, with Pops Larkin taking top honours in the final round.

At the end of the three days (Stableford format), Stephen Sheppard claimed the title of overall champion, with Hazel Browne in second place and Paul Meehan in third. Special recognition went to Axel Bleymann for the best gross score (244 strokes), highlighting his remarkable consistency throughout the tournament.

Prestige Tournament: more than golf

But the Tee Times Prestige Tournament was about more than just great golf. It was a gathering of the joy and fellowship that the game brings. From the Welcome Reception to the Prize Giving Dinner at Chez Carlos Restaurant, the event was filled with moments to remember—whether sharing stories of triumphs on the greens or enjoying delicious tapas and drinks with fellow golfers.

Stephen Sheppard’s remarkable achievement was celebrated in style during the Prize Giving Dinner, where he received his awards from Jorge Diogo, Director of Sales & Marketing at Tee Times Golf Agency, Telma Santos, our Reservations Manager, and Ruben Martins, Director of 18Store Golf Rentals, one of the tournament’s sponsors. Their speeches emphasised the event’s importance and highlighted the collaborative spirit that made it a hit.

The Prestige Tournament success was made possible by the outstanding support of our sponsors:  Praia D’El Rey Marriott Golf & Beach Resort, Monte Rei Golf & Country Club, Quinta do Lago Golf Courses, Bela Colina Village and Boavista Golf & Spa, Salgados Golf Club, Espiche Golf, Morgado/Alamos Golf Course, 18 Store Golf Rentals, Dolce Campo Real Golf, Vidago Palace, Ombria Golf Course, Tivoli Marina Vilamoura, Quinta da Ria and Golfe do Montado.

Golfing in Portugal: A Year-Round Paradise

Posted on by

As the leaves start to change and temperatures cool across Europe, Portugal becomes a golfer’s dream destination. With its mild climate, stunning landscapes, and world-class courses, it’s no surprise that golfers flock here during autumn and even winter to enjoy a round or two in paradise. Golfing in Portugal is a reality 365 days a year.

Autumn in Portugal is nothing short of magical. The weather is comfortably warm, with temperatures between 15°C and 25°C—ideal for a full day on the course. Winter is just as inviting, with cooler mornings warming up to a pleasant 10°C or more, offering an excellent break from the freezing conditions in Europe. Whether you’re teeing off in the sun-soaked Algarve or exploring the scenic courses near Lisbon, there’s something extraordinary about golfing in Portugal during these months.

The Algarve, a long-time favourite for golfers, boasts some of Europe’s most iconic courses, like Quinta do Lago, Monte Rei, and the legendary Old Course at Vilamoura. Imagine perfect greens, ocean views, and a post-game drink under a golden sunset—it doesn’t get better than that. Lisbon and its surrounding areas are just as impressive, with gems like Troia Golf and West Cliffs offering a mix of natural beauty and challenging play. Heading north to Porto, courses like Vidago  Palace Golf provide a peaceful escape paired with authentic Portuguese charm.

INFINITUM Secures Long-Term Partnership with DP World Tour

Posted on by


According to a recent report by MyGolfWay, INFINITUM, located in Tarragona, Spain, and one of Europe’s premier golf, lifestyle, and real estate destinations, has signed a three-year renewal with the DP World Tour. This agreement ensures that the prestigious Final Stage of Qualifying School will remain at INFINITUM until 2027.

The tournament will be held across the renowned Lakes (designed by golf legend Greg Norman) and Hills (by Alfonso Vidaor) courses. This will make it nine consecutive seasons of hosting this gruelling six-round golf marathon. Notably, the Hills course is set to undergo extensive upgrades as part of a long-term plan to enhance INFINITUM’s golfing facilities. Following a €800,000 renovation of the Lakes course earlier this year, these upgrades will ensure a world-class challenge for the 156 players competing for a coveted DP World Tour card.

This year’s Final Stage kicked off on November 8, with four rounds alternating between the Lakes and Hills courses before the field was cut. The final two rounds were contested solely at Lakes, known for its demanding yet rewarding layout.

In 2025, the initial rounds combined the Ruins and Hills courses, showcasing their versatility while the Hills’ back nine undergoes its transformation. Spearheading this ambitious renovation is European Golf Design, led by Dave Sampson, renowned for his work on Rome’s Marco Simone course, host of the 2023 Ryder Cup.

Adding to its busy calendar, INFINITUM will welcome the ECCO Tour in 2025 and 2026. These events will feature 156 professionals competing across three tournaments for a €150,000 prize fund, further solidifying INFINITUM’s position as a golfing powerhouse.

With elite facilities, including state-of-the-art driving ranges and the Callaway Performance Centre, INFINITUM is a golfer’s paradise. Beyond golf, its award-winning Beach Club and luxury real estate offerings make it a top choice for Spain golf holidays in Tarragona. Of course, it is best booked through Tee Times Golf Agency, your gateway to unforgettable experiences and the best golf packages in Spain.
