WINSTONgolf Senior Open 2023
Ladies vs. Gentlemen – the game begins
For the first time in Germany: Legends Tour and Ladies European Tour united on one course.
The late summer weekend of this year’s WINSTONgolf Senior Open from 15 – 17 September 2023 promises to be a sporting highlight for all golfing enthusiasts. In just two weeks from now, top male players of the Legends Tour will meet the sporting power of the best over-45 proettes of the Ladies European Tour in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Total prize money has been increased by EUR 100,000 to EUR 450,000, of which EUR 67,500 goes to the winner.
The qualifying factor for the ladies’ participation is the All Time Money List. As a two-time Solheim Cup player, two-time European Tour winner and former number 1 in Germany, Elisabeth “Lisl” Esterl has confirmed her participation. Patricia Beliard from France and Catrin Nilsmark from Sweden are also expected to be there. Andrew Oldcorn (SCO/2016), Phillip Price (WAL/2017), Stephen Dodd (WAL/2018), Clark Dennis (USA/2019) and James Kingston (RSA/2021) are some of the winners from previous years participating in this battle. Spectators can also look forward to Sven Strüver and Thomas Gögele from Germany as well as Markus Brier from Austria. Masters winner Ian Woosnam rounds off the high-calibre field.
As a German player, Elisabeth Esterl has already confirmed her participation: “I am very happy about the invitation to Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and about this unique event. I think the format and the idea that ladies and men compete in a single tournament is brilliant! I have already heard so many positive things about the WINSTONgolf course and am therefore very excited at the challenge that awaits me there. Now I am fully motivated to train a lot and prepare well for this weekend.”
Great tournament moments: experience professional golf at first hand!
Spectators don't usually get this close to professional players. During the WINSTONgolf Senior Open, young and old, from golfing beginners to passionate golfers, can already rub shoulders with legends of the golf scene on the driving range and later on the course. Admission to the tournament grounds is free on all tournament days. Sufficient free spectator parking spaces are also available.
