We are proud to announce the 58th edition of the Portugal 2020 Open tournament at the Royal Óbidos Golf Course in the Western Region.

The prestigious European Challenge Tour, organized by the Portuguese Golf Federation, was created in 1953 and is one of the oldest and most emblematic tournaments on the European calendar, becoming one of the founding events of the European first division. The Portuguese Open is still the most important proof of the FPG calendar in terms of size and opportunities it offers to Portuguese professional players and elite amateurs.

Some of the biggest stars in the world today played at the Portuguese Open, such as Martin Kaymer, Matt Wallace, Henrik Stenson, Padraig Harrington, Ricardo Melo Gouveia, and Pedro Figueiredo (currently on the European Tour).

The Portuguese Open at Royal Óbidos 2020 will take place from September 17 to 20, 2020, with Pro-Am on Wednesday, September 16. One hundred forty-four players will be up for grabs for the € 200,000.00 prize money in a 72 hole (four-round) tournament with Cut after 36 holes where the top 60 players (+ draws) qualify.
