The Omega European Masters
is one of the most prestigious golf competitions played on European
soil. Located at Crans-Montana in the heart of the Swiss Alps, the
Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club is indisputably the most spectacular course
on the European Tour schedule.
This internationally-renowned golf competition, played on the same
course for the 68th time in 2014, has seen players such as Spain's
Severiano Ballesteros, José Maria Olazabal and Sergio Garcia, Scotland's
Colin Montgomerie, South Africa's Ernie Els and Britain's Lee Westwood
win the coveted trophy.
Since 2009, the Omega European Masters, which will offer prize money of
EUR 2.3 million in 2014, has been the first tournament to have been
jointly sanctioned by the Asian Tour and the European Tour, giving the
30 best Asian players the opportunity to challenge their European
counterparts.
The 42 year old Dane Thomas Björn is the great winner of the Omega European Masters 2013.
The professional players willmeet again in Crans-Montana next
September and each one of them is hoping to add his name to the winner
list of this prestigious tournament.
