The Travis Perkins Masters returns to Woburn Golf Club for the 16th consecutive year from September 2-4, and GolfNews has teamed up with the organiser to offer you the chance to win a round on the magnificent Duke’s Course, with lunch, for you and three friends, plus four season tickets to see the stars of the European Senior Tour in action. Pairs of season tickets to the Travis Perkins Masters are also being offered to five runners up.
With crowds of more than 20,000, the Travis Perkins Masters remains one of the most popular on the schedule, and is also one of the Senior Tour’s longest-running tournaments. Travis Perkins plc, whose sponsorship of the event will run until 2018, has offered an increased prize fund of £340,000 for this year’s edition – a £20,000 rise from last year’s total.
Last season, eight-time European No.1 Colin Montgomerie secured a hat-trick of consecutive wins following a thrilling final round play-off against fellow Scotsman Ross Drummond. Montgomerie joined an illustrious list of past winners, including another former Ryder Cup captain, Mark James in 2005 (pictured); Carl Mason, the most successful player on the Senior Tour, who claimed the championship in 2006 and 2007, and 2012 Ryder Cup vice-captain Des Smyth, who won at Woburn in 2010 and 2012.
Discounted daily tickets for the Travis Perkins Masters can be purchased in advance from www.europeantour.com/tickets for £10, while season passes are available for £25. Tickets can be purchased on the gate for £15 per day, or £30 for a season pass. Under 16s are admitted free of charge if accompanied by an adult. Following on from last year, spectators can again reserve on-site car parking for just £10 per day (Friday-Sunday), which can only be booked in advance and must be for a specified day. The offer ensures a parking space adjacent to the first fairway, within a 250-yard walk of the first tee, the 18th green, tented village and practice putting green. It also includes a free event programme and daily drawsheet.
