Wales’ Celtic Manor is to host the world’s finest golfers with disabilities after agreeing a three-year deal to stage the G4D Open.<\/b><\/p>\n
The championship will be played in Wales for the first time in 2026, with the Newport venue also staging the event in 2027 and 2028.<\/p>\n
The G4D Open, which was first played in 2023, is jointly run by the R&A and the DP World Tour and is supported by the European Disabled Golf Association (EDGA).<\/p>\n
A field of 80 male and female amateur and professional golfers will compete over 54 holes of stroke play gross competition, with nine sport classes across multiple impairment groups.<\/p>\n
The championship will be played on the Roman Road course rather than the Twenty Ten, which staged the Ryder Cup 15 years ago. <\/p>\n
Organisers say next year’s G4D Open, which will run from 14-16 May, will be “one of the most inclusive championships ever staged”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
