The Legends Tour returns to Hanbury Manor Marriott Hotel & Country Club in 2024 with a new event and a new host too!
The format is all set to provide great drama for spectators throughout the week – not least with it being hosted by two-time Ryder Cup player Paul Lawrie.
The matchplay knockout tournament begins on Thursday with 64 players, reducing to 32 for round 2 on the Friday. The weekend provides two sessions per day, Saturday morning for the last 16 before the quarter-finals in the afternoon.
On our Super Sunday finale, the semi-finals are played in the morning before the play-off for 3rd place and the all-important final in the afternoon to decide who takes the title.
In celebration of the tournament being sponsored by Petsure, spectators are also encouraged to bring their dogs to this event so that man’s best friend can also enjoy the week.
Dog owners must be aware of some rules in place for those attending with their pets:
The Harry Vardon parkland course was re-designed by Jack Nicklaus II and played host to the Legends Tour Trophy in 2023, won by Bradley Dredge in his rookie season.
It plays at more than 7,000 yards and provides a true test. Hanbury Manor has previously hosted many tournaments on the Legends Tour, DP World Tour and the Ladies European Tour, producing winners such as Trish Johnson, Darren Clarke and Lee Westwood.
The Paul Lawrie Match Play was also an event staged on the DP World Tour from 2015-2017 with the titles won by Kiradech Aphibarnrat, Anthony Wall and Adrián Otaegui.
• This is a dog friendly event, but they must be well mannered and kept on the lead at all times on the golf course.
• We will provide a designated off-the-lead run zone, shaded areas and water stations to keep them happy, but unfortunately they won’t be allowed in the buildings at Hanbury Manor.
• Your dog’s welfare is your own responsibility so please ensure you seek shade in warm weather and ensure they’re comfortable in their surroundings.
• For their own safety, if the weather forecast is very hot we may need to stop dogs from coming to the event. We will let you know via email in advance if this is the case.
