The 2018 Italian Open will return to the picturesque surroundings of Lake Garda, where also our agency of Engel & Völkers Desenzano del Garda is located, for the first time in 15 years after Gardagolf Country Club was confirmed as the next host venue of the prestigious tournament from the 31th of May 31 2018 until the 3rd of June 2018.
Nestled between the famous Rocca di Manerba, Soiano Castle and the Valtenesi hills, Gardagolf Country Club is one of northern Italy’s most prestigious courses and has produced some memorable golfing moments, with the venue last hosting the national Open in 2003 when Sweden’s Mathias Grönberg claimed a two-stroke victory.
Keith Waters, Chief Operating Officer of the European Tour, said: “We are delighted to be returning to Gardagolf Country Club, one of Italy’s great golf courses, and with such a stunning location for our members and golf fans at Lake Garda, we are extremely pleased to bring a Rolex Series event to this fantastic venue.
