The HotelPlanner Tour will return to England for the first time in three years with two events set to take place during the 2026 Road to Mallorca.
After visiting South Africa, the United Arab Emirates and four countries in Europe, the HotelPlanner Tour will head to The Vale Golf Club in June for the England Golf Challenge supported by HotelPlanner, with the event and course debuting on the Road to Mallorca.
Along with the event in Worcestershire, the return of the English Challenge at The Caversham means two English events will take place for the first time since 2022, when the British Challenge presented by Modest! Golf Management and English Trophy presented by Rocket Yard Sports Marketing held back-to-back positions on the schedule.
The last time the HotelPlanner Tour visited the country, Alex Fitzpatrick sealed a memorable five-stroke victory on home soil at St. Mellion Estate before going on to earn promotion to the DP World Tour the same year. Scotsman Euan Walker, Irishman Conor Purcell, Switzerland’s Jeremy Freiburghaus and Chilean Leon Hugo are the four other players who’ve most recently won a HotelPlanner Tour event on English soil.
The addition of both events means the Road to Mallorca will make four stops in the British Isles in 2026 with the Farmfoods Scottish Challenge supported by The R&A at Schloss Roxburghe and Irish Challenge at Killeen Castle taking place in August.
The England Golf Challenge supported by HotelPlanner will take place from June 18-21 whilst the English Challenge will be played from September 10-13.
