Description

Since its inception in 2000, The Celtic Manor Wales Open has grown into one of the leading golf tournaments on The European Tour International Schedule. The 2010 event will boast the strongest playing field to date as Europe’s leading tour stars arrive on a recce just four months before The Ryder Cup is played on the same Twenty Ten Course.

Most of the players bidding for a spot on the team will be anxious not only to get a good look at the course, they will also be eager to impress Europe’s Ryder Cup captain, Colin Montgomerie.

With a prize fund of £1.8 million and a first prize of £300,000, The Celtic Manor Wales Open also represents a great opportunity for these players to boost their qualifying prospects for The Ryder Cup.

Robert Karlsson’s win at Celtic Manor back in 2006 certainly helped propel the big Swede to a Ryder Cup debut at The K Club and his second place behind Australian Scott Strange two years later ensured he retained his place in the team in 2008, en route to finishing the season as Europe’s No 1 golfer.

Past winners with considerable Ryder Cup pedigree also include Miguel Angel Jiménez, Ian Poulter, Paul Lawrie and Paul McGinley while the tournament has also been graced over the years by the likes of Padraig Harrington, Retief Goosen, Lee Westwood, Rory McIlroy, Colin Montgomerie, Nick Faldo, Seve Ballesteros and Wales’ own Ian Woosnam.

There’s no doubt the tournament has already built a rich history in its first 10 years of existence but, with the added impetus of the Ryder Cup later in the year, the 2010 event promises to provide the most captivating action yet.
