Title hat-trick on the “Spielbudenplatz” square in Hamburg? When the #Porsche European Open 2019 protagonists meet for the #Porsche Urban #golf Challenge on 3 September at 8.30 p.m., one thing is for certain – the third edition of the special #Event in the heart of St. Pauli will produce a fantastic atmosphere with top #golf and a spectacular show. Unclear however is who will be celebrating the tournament week’s first title.
US golfers walked off with the win both times the #competition has been staged – Patrick Reed and Jimmy Walker triumphed in 2017 and then Pat Perez one year later. In 2019, the world No. 9 Xander Schauffele and last year’s Masters’ winner Patrick Reed will be hoping to complete the US hat-trick. Also in the running for the title this year will be the multiple European Tour and PGA Tour-winner Paul Casey (England), his countryman and the #Porsche European Open title-holder, Richard McEvoy, the Ryder Cup player Thomas Pieters (Belgium), the second placed player in the Race to Dubai Bernd Wiesberger (Austria), the Dane Lucas Bjerregaard as well as the German hope Max Schmitt. Like in the previous years, an attractive trophy, a #Porsche, will entice the stars – this year a new Cayenne Coupé that the victor can use as his personal sports car for all his journeys during his time in Hamburg.
Part of the Reeperbahn will be turned into a race track on the Spielbudenplatz square. The eight contestants will face each other in a knock-out #competition over a course reminding one of a motorsport starting grid and have to propel their miniature Porsches over the finish line in first place by hitting balls into differing piles of tyres. Before the contest, a DJ will get the spectators in the mood for the #Porsche Urban #golf Challenge. Interested visitors can follow the #golf show in the designated seating and stands around the #competition area. The #Event will also be broadcast via an international livestream on the following platforms of the European Tour:
