Information:
The
Castelló Masters Costa Azahar is a
European Tour golf tournament that
was held for the first time in
October 2008, taking the slot
formerly used by the Mallorca
Classic. The event is held at the
Club de Campo del Mediterráneo in
Castellón, Spain.
The
inaugural event was won by Sergio
García, who also happened to be the
tournament host, having grown up
playing golf on the course where his
father is the club professional.
García finished on a twenty under
par total of 264, winning by a
margin of three strokes over Peter
Hedblom.
The
PGA European Tour is an organisation
which operates the three leading
men's professional golf tours in
Europe: the elite European Tour, the
European Seniors Tour and the
developmental Challenge Tour. Its
headquarters are at Wentworth Club
in Virginia Water, Surrey, England.
The European Tour is the primary
golf tour in Europe and is second to
the United States-based PGA Tour in
worldwide prestige. The European
Tour was established by the
British-based Professional Golfers'
Association, and responsibility was
transferred to an independent PGA
European Tour organisation in 1984.
Most events on the PGA European
Tour's three tours are held in
Europe, but in recent years an
increasing number have been held in
other parts of the world outside of
North America.
