European Tour set for return to Russia

The European Tour will return to Russia this summer for the US$2,000,000 Inteco Russian Open Golf Championship 2008, to be played over Le Méridien Moscow Country Club from July 24-27.
Inteco, one of Russia’s most powerful real estate developers, were an Official Partner to the 2007 Russian Open and have increased their commitment to the tournament by assuming Title Sponsorship of the event won by Sweden’s Per-Ulrik Johansson last year.
The European Tour has been playing golf in Russia since the Challenge Tour’s first visit there in 1996. The tournament has grown over the past 12 years, becoming a dual ranking event from 2003-2005 before being installed as a fully sanctioned European Tour event in 2006.
