Senior Tour returns to Portugal with top line-up

A host of household names, including former Ryder Cup captains Mark James, Sam Torrance and Ian Woosnam, will appear when the Belas Clube de Campo Senior Open de Portugal takes place in Lisbon from September 29 to October 1.

The tournament marks the return of the European Senior Tour to Portuguese shores after a three year absence and will be the eighth Senior Tour event overall to be staged in the country.

The Senior Open de Portugal also carries a significant prize fund of €300,000 and is the 19th of the 22 tournaments on the Senior Tour International Schedule.

It is therefore likely to play a big part in the battle to dethrone Boonchu Ruangkit as winner of the John Jacobs Trophy, with Peter Fowler, Andrew Oldcorn and Woosnam amongst those in the running to top the Senior Tour Order of Merit.

They will all appear at Belas Clube de Campo, alongside such Senior Tour stars as Torrance, James, Costantino Rocca and Des Smyth.

Belas Golf Club is owned by the Andre Jordan Group and previously hosted the European Challenge Tour Grand Final in 1998.
