Costa Navarino, the prime sustainable destination located in Messinia, Greece, has teamed up with two-time Masters Champion José María Olazábal to launch the “Olazábal and Friends Charity Pro-Am” this autumn. Following the successful launch last year, the Olazábal & Friends Charity ProAm in 2023 will again take place at Costa Navarino and played on the International Olympic Academy Golf Course as well as the Hills Course, both designed by José María Olazábal.
Scheduled to take place during November 24-27, the inaugural golf event will give participants the exclusive opportunity to join Olazábal and his professional friends in an up-close experience, playing at the two new courses at Navarino Hills. The two new courses were designed by the Spanish legend and opened in February.
With a maximum of 72 participants (54 amateur guests and 18 Pros including José María Olazábal and Miguel Ángel Jiménez), the initiative is best described as an up close golf experience with José María and his Pro friends in an almost family like atmosphere.
Social events, a prize-giving lunch and a golf clinic are also included, with all proceeds of the event being donated to Sport Mundi, a Spanish non-profit organisation chaired by José María Olazábal, which supports children in need and to the Captain Vassilis & Carmen Constantakopoulos Foundation.
