The prestigious South Course at Quinta do Lago is a par-72 layout recently named Europe’s Best Golf Course and Portugal’s Best Golf Course at the 2023 World Golf Awards.

The headline sponsor of the event since 2019, Rose forms part of an illustrious roll call of iconic names who were victorious in the tournament at the start of their respective careers. His recent winning Ryder Cup colleagues Tommy Fleetwood and Matt Fitzpatrick both put themselves on the map with success at the event, as did Ladies European Tour stars Jodi Ewart Shadoff, Melissa Reid and Carly Booth.

Quinta do Lago is hosting the unofficial “major of junior golf” for the seventh time in nine years. Updates at http://eg-justinrosetelegraphjuniorgolf23.golfgenius.com
