Open de Portugal 2023. Open de Portugal at Royal Óbidos.

Open de Portugal will be decisive to the Road of Mallorca rankings

Open de Portugal will take place in Óbidos, Lisbon region, from September 14 to 17, and we bring you what you must know in order to be prepared for the drama at Royal Óbidos.

A Severiano Ballesteros’ masterpiece, the golf course at the beautiful Royal Óbidos Spa & Golf Resort, is not to be missed. The Spanish designer made a difficult course that uses the natural settings and the hilly land to its advantage. On hole 3, players hit their ball into an island green with the Óbidos lagoon in the background. The 18th hole has a view of the back nine, the clubhouse, and the Atlantic Ocean.

Open de Portugal has been held at Royal Óbidos for four straight years, including this year’s edition of the tournament. In 2020, Garrick Higgo won the first Open de Portugal held at Royal Óbidos. He was followed by Marcel Schneider in 2021 and Pierre Pineau in 2022. Who will win this year?

There are only five tournaments left to see which player will move on to the DP World Tour. At the end of the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final at Club de Golf Alcanada, the best 20 players in the Road to Mallorca Rankings will secure the promotion.

Portugal Golf – 2023 Absolute National Championship of Portugal

Posted on by

Absolute National Championship of Portuguese golf. The Absolute National Championship of Portuguese golf has reached an end

The Portuguese Absolute National Championship crowned some of the best Portuguese golfers

Sofia Sá (+3) and Ricardo Santos (-12), on July 22, won 18,200 euros from the Portuguese Golf Federation (FPG) for winning the KIA Absolute National Championship at the Quinta do Peru Golf & Country Club in Sesimbra, near Lisbon.

Sara Melo (+33) and Tiago Mendes (+29) have both won their respective 2nd Category national championships, while Pedro Cruz Silva (-8) has won the amateur national title.

The KIA Absolute National Championship, established in 2020, brings together professionals and amateurs, female and male, simultaneously awarding the main national amateur and professional titles.

In 2020 there were still two National Championships, the FPG and the PGA Portugal, but in 2021 the FPG took over all the events and created a perfect symbiosis of two events that until then had existed separately: the Absolute National Championship (for amateurs) of the FPG, and the PGA National Championship of Portugal.

Sofia Sá is now a double absolute national champion. She is the only player to have done this since the event started including amateurs and professionals.

Ricardo Santos is a different story. For the first time since the event started bringing together professionals and amateurs, the player from Vilamoura won the title of absolute national champion.

As for Pedro Silva, he won his second title in a row as the amateur national winner.
