In 2025 the Danish Golf Championship will visit the capital of Copenhagen for the first time, when the tournament is staged at Furesø Golf Club.
A field of 156 leading players from the DP World Tour will tee it up in front of an anticipated crowd of 80,000 spectators. The current champion is Danish native Rasmus Højgaard, who claimed victory last year with a 13 under par total. The 2024 tournament will be held at Lübker Golf Resort in Aarhus from August 22-25.
Furesø Golf Club was established in 1974 and was designed by Jan Cederholm, with a renovation in 2015 by Tom Mackenzie. It is one of the country's largest golf clubs with 1,800 members.
“We are very proud to have been chosen to host a tournament of this level. In the past we have held European Championships for women and juniors as well as other major elite tournaments, but this is on a completely different level, and we are very much looking forward to it. I hope that the Danish Golf Championship will stimulate young people's interest in golf, and the current juniors in the club will certainly be inspired,” says the Chairman of Furesø Golf Club, Lotte Burchard.
“The fact that we now have the 2025 edition of our Danish flagship event located in Furesø Golf Club, only 25 kilometers from the Town Square in Copenhagen, is huge and an important milestone in our goal of getting the tournament around the whole country. I have of course also informed the Danish players about the news, and they have all welcomed it with great enthusiasm. Everyone is sure that it will be a success”, added Flemming Astrup, CEO of GolfPromote.
