After three tournaments in Spain, the DP World Tour heads to its neighbour to the west for the Portugal Masters at Dom Pedro Victoria Golf Course on the Algarve. There, players will look to replicate the success of Thomas Pieters, who won last year’s tournament.
The Belgian is absent from this year’s field, as is 2020 winner George Coetzee. However, two Englishmen with recent success do appear. Steven Brown won by one shot in 2019 ahead of South Africans Brandon Stone and Justin Walters. The year before that, Tom Lewis won by three shots to claim his second Portugal Masters title, after his first success in the tournament seven years earlier.
Yannick Paul claimed his maiden DP World Tour title in dramatic fashion in last week’s Mallorca Open, holing a birdie putt from off the green to clinch the title. He appears this week hoping to capitalise on the confidence and momentum gained from that win, as do his two nearest competitors at Son Muntander Golf Club, Paul Waring and Nicolai Von Dellingshausen.
The highest-ranked player in this week’s tournament is World No.67 Robert MacIntyre. The Scotsman has recent success on the DP World Tour, having won the Italian Open at the Marco Simone Golf and Country Club last month. MacIntyre has enjoyed two more top-10 finishes since, when he tied for eighth in the Open de France and tied for ninth in the Andalucia Masters at Valderrama. With Ryder Cup points up for grabs, he will be hopeful of another strong performance this week as he bids to return to the scene of his recent win in next year's tournament.
One recent winner on the Tour who isn’t in the field is Andalucia Masters victor Adrian Otageui. The Spaniard is instead preparing to compete in the LIV Golf Team Championship at Trump National Doral in Florida following his heroics two weeks ago.
The par-71 course is known for its fast and expansive greens, with strategically placed water and bunkers throughout. The reward for the player who gets to grips with it most efficiently is a first prize of $333,330 from a purse of $2m.
Below is a full breakdown of the prize money and field the 2022 Portugal Masters.
