Arrangements for the European Senior Tour Qualifying School for the 2013 campaign have now been finalised and it will once again take place in January on Portugal’s Algarve.
Around 180 hopefuls are expected to compete over the two stages at the Pestana Golf Resort as they attempt to win a card for the Senior Tour and earn the opportunity to play alongside some of the iconic names of European golf such as double Senior Major Champion Roger Chapman, Sandy Lyle, Sam Torrance and Ian Woosnam.
The First Stage will take place on January 24 and 25, 2013, over two courses at the Pestana Golf Resort: Silves Golf, and the Nick Price-designed Gramacho course.
The Final stage, contested by 72 players, will then take place at Pestana’s Vale da Pinta from Monday January 28 to Thursday January 31, where the leading six players will receive full cards for the 2012 season, and players finishing in positions seven to 14 receiving conditional cards.
