Faldo Series extends deadline for UK entries

The world-renowned Faldo Series announced today that it has extended the deadline until 5pm on Monday 1 March 2010 for entries into this year's nine UK events.   The 2010 Faldo Series will attract in excess of 5,000 boys and girls aged between 12 and 21 and is comprised of 30 events in over 25 countries throughout the UK, Europe, South America and Asia.   Winners from all the qualifying events will be invited to compete in either the Faldo Series Grand Final in Europe or the Faldo Series Asia Grand Final in China - both of which will be hosted by the six-time Major champion himself.   This year's European Grand Final will take place over the Faldo Course at the magnificent Lough Erne Resort in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland in September.   Last year's European Grand Final was staged in the Olympic city of Rio de Janeiro and was won by England's Jonathan Bell, who recorded a one-stroke victory over 2009 British Boys champion, Tom Lewis.   England's Holly Clyburn was crowned 2009 Faldo Series Girls' champion, ahead of Scotland's Carly Booth.   For further information, including details of the venues in this year's UK Championships, visit nickfaldo.com   Where next?   Faldo Series: Faldo Series signs partnership with Lough Erne ; Enter 2010 Faldo Series Win prizes: Golf Monthly competitions
