SCOTTISH PAR 3 CHAMPIONSHIP BY FARMFOODS
The seventh edition of the Scottish Par 3 Championship over the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre’s Championship Devenick Course took place in July and we were delighted that Farmfoods continued as our title sponsor. Farmfoods is the longstanding supporter of the British Par 3 Championships and with this sponsorship they are continuing their investment in the sport. Kieran Cantley claimed the title in 2022 following in the footsteps of Craig Lawrie (2021) John Henry (2020), Sean Lawrie (2019), David Dixon (2018), Louis Gaughan (2017) and, event host, Paul Lawrie (2015).
TARTAN PRO TOUR
An initial series of six 36-hole events held around the country in 2020, saw golfers from DP World Tour, LET, Challenge Tour, LET Access and various others coming together to vie for the prizefunds on offer whilst most other Pro Golf Tours halted their activity because of Covid. 2021 and 2022 saw the schedule increase to 12 events, providing an extension to the playing season for Professionals seeking progression onto the highest-ranking Tours. In 2023, Tartan Pro Tour was designated an Official Feeder Tour to the European Challenge Tour. Events increased to 54-holes (with a cut after 36 holes). For 2024, the leading two players from the Tartan Pro Tour Order of Merit shall gain exemptions for the 2025 Challenge Tour with events again being staged at some of Scotland’s top venues between the 1st of May and the end of September, providing a direct pathway onto Challenge Tour for the two highest-ranked players.
FARMFOODS SCOTTISH CHALLENGE SUPPORTED BY THE R&A
After a three year absence, 5Star Sports Agency revived the Scottish Challenge with the backing of Farmfoods. This important event within the development pathway provides aspiring players with the platform to progress onto the DP World Tour stage.
Newmachar’s Hawkshill Championship course will again be the host venue for the event (which returns for a third year in 2024 from the 8th to 11th August).
England’s Sam Bairstow (pictured) took the title in 2023 to follow in the footsteps of Spain’s Javier Sainz and 5Star client, David Law’s previous victories.
Players from nations across Europe and further afield will descend on Aberdeen in August to vie for the Farmfoods Scottish Challenge title.
