Meanwhile players are already training, the LDET organization ensures a calendar full of emotions with a season that scheduled the Netherlands and Estonia as new countries. The kick-off will be in Sweden next 10th and 11th of April, a scenario where the tour was already present in his first season and where returns with a great force. Not surprisingly, it is one of the best ranks of Long Drivers in Europe. The Swedish event will be held at Bro Hof Slott Golf Course, just 20 minutes far from downtown Stockholm, and a resort which is the second best golf course of the continent.

Three weeks after the first bombings, the hitters will travel to Estonia the next 1st and 2nd of May to the golf course Estonian Golf & Country Club. It is only twenty five minutes far from the capital, Tallinn, and celebrates its tenth anniversary.

This venue certifies his commitment with the circuit and the long drive as one of the best and more known fields of golf on the Costa del Sol. As a new, The CUP will be played the day before the big tournament. It will be a KO battle that promises to be very interesting among all amateurs and professionals players attending the event. Slovenia, Italy and France will repeat for the second season in the same scenarios that successfully hosted their rounds in 2014.

A different MASTERS

Among the surprises of the season there is The MASTERS LDET Cup, a final tournament that last year brought the hitters to Lumine Golf (Tarragona, Spain). This season will probably land in a country outside the European borders. “This tournament will be the bombshell and will announce it very soon” says Xavier Eusebio.

The British Joe Miller has been crown the European Long Drive Champion for two consecutive seasons. Despite of his leadership, it will not be easy to renew it: Adrián Sánchez, the young Spanish hitter who has joined hard to the circuit is ready to snatch Miller his exclusivity number one. In this struggle will be added, among others, the Scottish John McSloy, currently #2, the English Scott Beaven, the South Africa’s Dewald Lubbe or the Swedish bomber CJ Hellstrom. Thanks to LDET, many new European players will jump on the circuit of the Long Drive to tour throughout Europe.
