INFINITUM er ikke fremmed for at være vært for prestigefyldte begivenheder, idet de afholdt DP World Tour’s ISPS Handa Championship i 2022, mens DP World Tour’s Qualifying School Final Stage vender tilbage til resortet i november for sjette gang.
Aftalen med ECCO Tour kommer på et spændende tidspunkt for INFINITUM, hvor resortet i øjeblikket investerer kraftigt i forbedringer. En renovering til €800,000 af den Greg Norman-designede Lakes bane blev annonceret i starten af året, mens anden fase af et ambitiøst ejendomsprojekt er godt i gang.
– Gennem årene har vi, via samarbejdet med DP World Tour, lært præcis, hvad der skal til for at være vært for en stor professionel begivenhed, og vi ser frem til at så mange nye spillere oplever vores resort for første gang, siger Vicegeneraldirektør for Golf, Beach Club og F&B på INFINITUM, Joaquín Mora Bertrán og fortsætter:
– Samarbejdet er endnu en fantastisk mulighed for at opleve nogle af Europas bedste kommende spillere på deres rejse mod toppen af golf, som vi har set med en række DP World Tour-stjerner, der kom gennem ECCO Tour.
Siden 2010 har ECCO Tour indledt hver sæson med en turneringsserie i Spanien, hvilket gør det til det mest besøgte ikke-skandinaviske land i tourens historie. Direktør i GolfPromote, Flemming Astrup glæder sig over, at kunne fortsætte den 15-årige tradition med at starte sæsonen i Spanien, og han er især spændt på at arbejde med INFINITUM.
– Vores Spring Series er en stor faktor for touren og især for vores spillere, og det er vigtigt, at vi har en mesterskabsbane som denne til at teste alle aspekter af vores spilleres spil. De fleste af vores spillere har også DP World Tour Qualifying School Final Stage på INFINITUM som et af deres mål for slutningen af sæsonen, hvilket er en anden grund til, at dette samarbejde giver meget mening for ECCO Tour, fortæller Flemming Astrup.
INFINITUM består af en 9-huls bane og de to 18-huls baner, Hills Course og Lakes Course, som spillerne på ECCO Tour skal prøve kræfter med i foråret 2025. Du kan læse mere om det fantastiske resort her.

INFINITUM is no stranger to hosting prestigious events, having held the DP World Tour’s ISPS Handa Championship in 2022, and the DP World Tour’s Qualifying School Final Stage returning to the resort in November for the sixth time.
The agreement with the ECCO Tour comes at an exciting time for INFINITUM, which is currently investing heavily in improvements. An €800,000 renovation of the Greg Norman-designed Lakes course was announced earlier this year, while the second phase of an ambitious real estate project is well underway.
– Over the years, through our collaboration with the DP World Tour, we have learned exactly what it takes to host a major professional event, and we look forward to many new players experiencing our resort for the first time,” said Joaquín Mora Bertrán, Deputy General Manager of Golf, Beach Club, and F&B at INFINITUM.
– This partnership is another fantastic opportunity to see some of Europe’s best up-and-coming players on their journey to the top of golf, as we have seen with several DP World Tour stars who came through the ECCO Tour.”
Since 2010, the ECCO Tour has started each season with a tournament series in Spain, making it the most visited non-Scandinavian country in the tour’s history. Flemming Astrup, Director at GolfPromote, is pleased to continue the 15-year tradition of starting the season in Spain and is particularly excited to work with INFINITUM.
– Our Spring Series is a significant factor for the tour and especially for our players, and it is important to have a championship venue like this to test every aspect of our players’ games. Most of our players also have the DP World Tour Qualifying School Final Stage at INFINITUM as one of their end-of-season goals, which is another reason why this collaboration makes perfect sense for the ECCO Tour,” Flemming Astrup said.
At INFINITUM you will find a 9-hole course and two 18-hole courses, Hills Course and Lakes Course, which the players on the ECCO Tour will take on in the spring of 2025. Learn more about INFINITUM.
