WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE FINAL QUALIFIER OF LET Q-SCHOOL

With the first week of LET Q-School having wrapped up, a total of 75 players including 13 amateurs made it through to the Final Qualifier this week.

La Manga Club plays host once again to the prestigious tournament with Wales’ Amy Boulden winning the most recent Q-School played at the same venue in January 2020.

Before that Anna Nordqvist, Caroline Masson, Caroline Hedwall and Jodi Ewart Shadoff took top honours when the Spanish Resort hosted in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

128 players from 30 countries will compete in the Final Qualifier from Thursday 16 – Monday 20 December on the North and South Courses.

North Course: It was designed by Robert Dean Putman in 1971. This is a technically more accessible course for players of all levels. Here you will find plenty of palm trees, lakes, and ravines.

South Course: It is considered to be one of the best courses in Spain. It was designed by Robert Dean Putman in 1971 and remodelled in 2005 by golfing legend, Arnold Palmer.

Running side by side and sharing a clubhouse, they promise to provide an electric atmosphere for those battling it out for a place on the 2022 Ladies European Tour.
