How to get from the tournament Hotel to the Purificación Course
The Open de España 2016 has chosen the Silken Monumental Naranco as the official hotel for the players, a very good hotel at a very reasonable price. Remember the players meeting will take place in the hotels conference center Friday afternoon. Please check the Travel info page for more information. The hotel…
The courses: hole 6 – Purificación Tomás
This wonderful hole runs uphill perpendicular to the fairway of hole five, and along the same steep slope. The steepness of the area around the green leaves the player with a tricky approach or putt if you have a big arm.
The courses: hole 8 – Purificación Tomás
The courses second longest hole is a 130-meter alley through a tree corridor extending along a fairway that tilts from left to right. The drive is played from an elevated tee and requires a delicate tee shot in order to pass the first of two double mandatories. The green is located in…
Player data loaded into the PDGA event page
Players data has been uploaded into the official PDGA event page. Six weeks before the tournament, there are only three available spots left, but we are sure we’ll have a full field by the time the players meeting starts at the tournament hotel Friday the 19th of February. We’re looking forward to meet…
The courses: hole 4 – Purificación Tomás
This relatively short hole brings out the sidearm of the right-handed player and leaves the leftie with a controlled hyze from the tee. The fairway slopes heavily from right to left. The green is flat and guarded in front by a couple of big trees.
The courses: hole 3 – Purificación Tomás
With a panoramic view of the city of Oviedo running down the entire left-hand side of the fairway, this par three is a true postcard hole. With a 16-meter drop, you’ll need a precise and controlled first throw from the elevated tee to make the birdie.
The courses: hole 2 – Purificación Tomás
The standard version of this 82-meter hole is suited for a right-handed hyze from the tee. The tournament version, however, is a whole new ball game.
The courses: hole 18 – Purificación Tomás
The granary hole, last but not least. A short 72-meter par four hole that doglegs right of a tree in the middle of the fairway and ends in a small green surrounded by out of bounds. The basket is placed by the iconic Galician granary, and the green slopes front…
The courses: hole 17 – Purificación Tomás
Seventeen is, in its last version, a complicated 93-meter uphill par three. The hole doglegs right around a big tree in the middle of the fairway. The green’s main defense is its diagonal slope, so in order to make the birdie the angle of attack of the drive is crucial.…
