PGA EUROPRO TOUR 2013 SEASON STARTS THIS WEEK IN NORFOLK
NEWS RELEASE
The 2013 PGA EuroPro Tour season gets
underway tomorrow (Tuesday) with the Motocaddy Masters over three days at Wensum Valley Hotel,
Golf and Country Club in Norfolk.
The Wensum Course at the venue will once again host what has become the traditional curtain-raiser on the PGA EuroPro Tour where last year Newbury’s Dan Seymour won a dramatic play-off by sinking a birdie on the 18th to defeat Liam Burns.
The winner will walk away with £10,000, a brand new Motocaddy trolley and will be invited to take part in the Challenge Tour’s Scottish Hydro Challenge in June by virtue of being guaranteed a place in the Order of Merit top five after the first three EuroPro Tour events of the season.
Among the field will be Sheringham golfer
William Harrold. The 24-year-old former US college circuit player is about to embark on his second
season on the PGA EuroPro Tour and is hoping the experience he has
gained over the last 12 months will stand him in good stead this
year.
“The more tournaments you play the more experience you gain so I am certainly more experienced going into this season,” he said.
“Missing cuts on the EuroPro Tour is
easy; you don’t have to play badly to miss cuts because the standard is
so high. But I made a few cuts last summer and gained valuable
experience over the winter.
“I have been in Spain, Morocco and I got a
start on the European Tour in Dubai, which was great. That sets your
goals really high because you know what you have to look forward to.
“I have played the course recently. They
have added some new holes at Wensum Valley this year and it is drier
than last year so I have no idea what the scoring will be like. The
standard is very high on the EuroPro Tour and I think everybody
is capable of winning an event.”
The Motocaddy Masters will take place
over 54 holes, with a cut to the leading 50 players plus ties taken
after the second round.
A two-hour highlights package of the
event will be broadcast four times on Sky Sports HD, with the first
airings on Wednesday, May 15 at 11am and 7pm.
Live scoring from the event will be available at www.europrotour.com
