With the largest field of 144 players and the largest prize fund of €80,000, the tournament promises to be incredibly exciting.
Before play gets underway on Friday, here are three things you might not know…
TWO SPOTS YET TO BE FILLED
If you’ve already looked at the tournament entries, you will notice there are two spots yet to be declared.
On Tuesday 27th , 29 players will compete in an 18-hole pre-qualifying event.
Whilst a £5,000 prize fund is up for grabs, with a £1,500 first prize, it’s not just money the players will compete for.
The top two players will earn a promoter invite to the main LETAS tournament.

For players and media, the biggest headline this week is the prize fund, which matches the tour record at €80,000.
It’s a good week to lead, with the winner receiving €12,800.
