European Ryder Cup Captain Darren Clarke has confirmed he will play in the 2015 Made in Denmark, the tournament which made such a successful debut on The European Tour International Schedule last summer.
Nearly 75,000 spectators flocked to Himmerland Golf and Spa Resort over the four days last year, creating an electric atmosphere which Clarke is keen to experience this time around.
“I’ve heard so much about the tournament from all my friends who were there,” said the 46 year old, who won The Open Championship in 2011. “The crowds are supposed to be absolutely sensational and I’m really looking forward to playing there this year.
“Thomas Bjørn is one of my best and oldest friends on Tour and he has spoken so highly of the Made in Denmark. We’ve played so much golf together so I trust him when he says it’s a fantastic tournament.
“With him playing there and another home favourite in Thorbjørn Olesen, I’m sure it will be another huge and successful event.”
Tournament promoter Flemming Astrup said: “We are very happy to have Darren Clarke in our field this year. He is a great golfer and always a pleasure to watch on a golf course. So our many fans really have something to look forward to.”
