HARDYS WINES CONTINUES
SUPPORT OF EURO SENIORS

Hardys, the leading Australian wine brand in the UK, will continue to sponsor the Hole-in-One Prize and the Rookie of the Year Award on the 2007 European Seniors Tour.
The Hole-in-One sponsorship, which is entering its seventh year, will begin this month with the season-opening DGM Barbados Open at Royal Westmoreland from February 28-March 2. Appropriately, the defending champion in Barbados will be Spanish former Ryder Cup player José Rivero, who claimed the second Hardys Rookie of the Year Award at the end of 2006. Under the terms of the Hardys Hole-in-One Prize, every professional recording an ace during a European Seniors Tour officially-sanctioned event will win a bottle of Hardys Nottage Hill wine for every yard of the hole in question.
Additionally, every amateur achieving the same feat during the tournament Pro-Am is rewarded with 10 cases of Hardys Nottage Hill wine.
During 2006 there were five holes-in-one by European Seniors Tour professionals. Club.
Paul Hillier, Marketing Manager at Hardys, commented: “This year promises to be an exceptionally exciting time for the European Seniors Tour and Hardys Wines is delighted to once again be part of that.
“A number of European golf’s biggest names, including Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo and Bernhard Langer, all celebrate their 50th birthdays in 2007 and become eligible to play on the Seniors circuit, heightening anticipation amongst spectators and fellow players alike.”
