Challenge Tour: 25 Years in the Making

To mark a quarter century of the Challenge Tour, Sky Sports will broadcast a special feature programme - ‘Challenge Tour: 25 Years in the Making’.

Challenge Tour Alumni

It will premiere in the UK on Monday May 20 at 18.30 on Sky Sports 4 and will feature interviews with some of the Tour’s most successful graduates and former players, as well as Challenge Tour Director, Alain de Soultrait.

With the likes of Thomas Björn, Martin Kaymer, Louis Oosthuizen, Ian Poulter and Justin Rose, to name just a few, having graduated from the Challenge Tour, the pedigree of players emerging from the circuit over the past two and a half decades is clear to see.

Former players have recorded hundreds of victories around the world ranging from European Tour wins to World Golf Championships and Major titles, while Kaymer became the first graduate to reach Number One in the Official World Golf Ranking in 2010.

A must watch for any golf fan, below are the broadcast times for Sky Sports in the UK:

Monday May 20 – 18.30 – Sky Sports 4

Tuesday May 21 – 01.00, 06.00 and 14.30 – Sky Sports 4
