Legends Tour Schedule

At the Bonanza Golf Club in Lusaka, three of the ten players in the top 10 are favourites: Brazilian Adilson Da Silva (n.

4) and England’s Robert Coles (n. 5), both season winners, and South African James Kingston (n. 8). There are many competitors looking to achieve their first success in 2024, including Sweden’s Patrick Sjoland, Scotland’s Greig Hutcheon and Euan McIntosh, South Africans Chris Williams and Keith Horne, New Zealander Michael Campbell, Welshman Phillip Price and England’s Paul Streeter and Paul Eales.

Tadini, in his second competition of the year, finished 28th in the Costa Navarino Legends Tour Trophy. The Legends Tour, formerly known as the Women’s Senior Golf Tour, is a professional golf tour for women aged 45 and over.

The tour was founded in 2000 by the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). Since its founding, the tour has been organized by the LPGA. It is comparable to the Champions Tour, a golf tour for men aged 50 and over. All golf tournaments of the Legends Tour take place in the United States.

In 2000, the tour was founded as the Women’s Senior Golf Tour until it was renamed the Legends Tour in 2006. In 2000, the first golf season began and two golf tournaments were on the calendar. From 2001 to 2006, 16 golf tournaments were organized.

Since 2006, the Legends Tour has organized a team golf tournament called the Handa Cup. It is a team competition between American women’s golfers and women’s golfers outside the United States. It is similar to the Solheim Cup, a team competition between American and European women’s golfers.

In 2009, the Legends Tour established the Legends Tour Open Championship, which was the only Major on the golf tour until 2013. Zambia, in southern Africa, is a landlocked country with rugged terrain and a wide variety of wildlife.

There are numerous parks and safari areas. On the border with Zimbabwe are the famous Victoria Falls, which the indigenous people call Mosi-oa-Tunya, “the smoke that thunders.” The falls plunge 108 m into the Batoka Gorge, creating a characteristic mist of small water droplets. Shortly after the falls, the Zambezi River is crossed by a bridge that offers spectacular views.
