Canary Island Swing, preview

After those of Garrick Higgo (Gran Canaria Lopesan Open) and Dean Burmester (Tenerife Open) the South African players are chasing the "treble" of successes in Tenerife. With Higgo and Burmester - on the hunt for a new exploit - Justin Harding (winner of the Magical Kenya Open this year) has a chance for the title.

While the many Spanish players in the race will be called to redeem, from Jorge Campillo to Adrian Otaegui, from Adri Arnaus to Nacho Elivra, who are looking for glory at home. Among the favorites on the eve also the English Eddie Pepperell, the Chinese Ashun Wu, the Finnish Kalle Samooja (third at the Tenerife Open) and the Scots Calum Hill and Connor Syme. The event will guarantee a prize pool of 1,500,000 euros.

In Italy it is possible again to organize and play golf competitions in the yellow zone. The good news was communicated in time by the Federgolf.

After the one relating to the abolition of the examination of the rules, the Federation issues another circular (number 16), less surprising than the previous one but very much awaited.

Starting from April 26, 2021 it is allowed, exclusively for the territories located in the yellow zone, to carry out any sporting golf activity outdoors, in compliance with the guidelines adopted by the Presidency of the Council of Ministers - Department for Sport.

After careful analysis of the current legislation and unless otherwise and any guidance should be provided by the Department of Sport of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, any golf sporting activity, events, demonstrations and competitions (including social and pro -am) if carried out outdoors and in compliance with the Federal Protocol.

With reference to the performance of the amateur sports activity referred to there, the use of changing rooms is prohibited unless otherwise established by the guidelines referred to in the first sentence.

For the territories located in the orange and red areas, the prescriptions made with previous legislative measures remain valid and effective.

A great step forward after months of lockouts or general play. Once again it's up to us now to respect the rules (not just those of golf) so that golf never stops.
