During the three competitive rounds that will take place at the two 18-hole signature golf courses at Costa Navarino — The Dunes Course and The Bay Course — golfers will claim the second biggest prize fund in Europe. The total amount to be distributed during Messinia Pro-Am is 50,000 euros.

The tournament will also award the top 5 best-performing teams, the 3 best professional golfers, while a hole-in-one award will also be given this year.

It should be noted that the Messinia Pro-Am tournament attracted global interest during the International Golf Travel Market (IGTM) that was recently held in Cannes.

Every year new elements are added to the tournament. For the first time this year, golfers will be able to get real-time updates on team and individual scores, even on their golf buggies, with the Messinia Pro-Am new live score service.
