April 15, 2014 – After the success of Twittour in 2013, the first Spanish 2.0 golf club has the new #TwittourPing2014 season prepared with interesting novelties: Attractive tournaments, Tweet&Meet events to choose from, and the support of the prestigious Ping golf brand.

In the fourth edition the tour has been renamed Twittour-Ping 2014, as result of the agreement reached with Ping Spain, which gives its name to the tour and provides prizes for the contest. The players will also wear the polo-shirts of the Ping Collection for the two main tournaments.

The first Twittour Golf tournament was held at the Golf de Lerma course in March 2011, with only 30 #jugones. Now in 2014 the community has reached over 1,600 #jugones who share their love of golf and strengthen friendships through Twitter, the social network that connects them. The ambience of camaraderie in their events is of no surprise, given that “you always play with friends.”

Two main tournaments have been organized in order to provide greater accessibility to golfers. The first will be played from 4th to 6th of July in Balneario de Mondariz, a classic place for #jugones, with a complete package that will delight those who have already played there in recent years, and also for those who have yet to discover this Galician jewel.

The second tournament will take them to La Manga Club from 7th to 9th of November, one of the best resorts in Europe, offering the opportunity to play its two best courses (N and S) and enjoying the luxurious facilities next to Mar Menor in Murcia.

Between the two tournaments there are the Tweet&Meets, a series of less organized golf get-togethers, so that players can get to know each other better and ‘de-virtualize’  #jugones who often only meet via Twitter. In 2014 four Tweet&Meets will be played, for which six courses have been preselected (Valdeluz, Retamares, La Herrería, Layos, Los Angeles de San Rafael and El Fresnillo).

The #jugones now have to vote on the four courses that appeal most to them, to decide which ones will be played in 2014. Voting is done via the web (http://www.twittour.es/vota-campos2014), but you can also comment on Twitter under the hashtag #votatuscampos. Get voting, because the selected courses and dates will be confirmed on April 24th.

You can follow all the activity on Twitter under the hashtag #TwittourPing2014.

Finally, the use of the Live Scoring system offered by Golfdirecto, which surprised #jugones last year, has been renewed. There will also be tastings of gin and tonics by Seagram ‘s Gin and Markham Tonic.

Have fun!
