“We are excited about returning to Old Fold Manor where there will be a lot to play for with World Amateur Golf Ranking points on offer as well as five spots in the Grand Final.”
“We are delighted to once again host the prestigious Faldo Series,” said Adrian Jackson, Manager of Old Fold Manor Golf Club.
“The staff and members of the Club are looking forward to welcoming some of the country’s top young golfers as they try to qualify for the final at The Greenbrier.”
