The golf courses will undoubtedly provide a great test for our players, who I’m sure will also enjoy everything that Costa Navarino has to offer. Broadening the reach of the Legends Tour throughout Europe and beyond is something we are committed to, and our thanks go to the European Tour Group for their support which has made this tournament possible.” David Ashington, General Manager at Costa Navarino Golf, said: “Following the success of last year’s inaugural tournament, it will be a pleasure to have the opportunity once again to showcase our array of golf, sports, hospitality and leisure activities to so many new and familiar faces on the Legends Tour. “The stage is set not only for a great professional golf tournament but for our amateur guests, who this year – via our new Playing Experiences – can compete alongside the stars and mingle with the legends of our game throughout the week.  We’re looking forward to creating more memories and adding a new chapter to Costa Navarino’s history.” The Costa Navarino Legends Tour Trophy takes place from June 12-14 and playing experiences are still available for those wishing to participate in the pro-am and sample life as a tour professional.
