Portugal Masters in Vilamoura

The European Tour announced the postponement of the Portugal Masters in Vilamoura due to continued travel difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The golf tournament, which was scheduled to take place from April 29th to May 2nd at the Victoria Golf Course in Vilamoura, will be replaced by the Tenerife Open held at Costa Adeje Golf Course in Tenerife.

It is a disappointment that the current challenges with international travel have led to the postponement of the Portugal Masters at Victoria Golf Course. Everyone associated with the tournament, both in Portugal and on the European Tour, worked very hard to organize the event, which has been an important part of the schedule since 2007. Unfortunately, it was simply not possible to organize the event next month as well.
It will be rescheduled sometime later this year.

Tee Times Golf Agency is looking forward to new dates for the Portugal Masters in Vilamoura and will be delighted to offer all its services, since accommodation in the best hotels, such as Tivoli Marina Vilamoura*****, Crown Plaza*****, Vila Galé Ampalius****, Vila Galé Marina****, Dom Pedro Vilamoura & Marina****, among others equally welcoming, as well as the golf rounds at the other Vilamoura golf courses, such as Pinhal Golf Course, Millennium Golf Course and The Old Course, as well as transfers for all displacements, not forgetting the specialized suggestions for the best restaurants and nightlife in Vilamoura.
