Ryder Cup Stars Join Tony Jacklin’s Celebrations

It is still hard to believe it is 40 years since Tony Jacklin’s historic U.S. Open win and that we have had to wait 40 years until Graham McDowell gave us a British winner again, just a few weeks ago.

At this year’s British Par 3 Championship, it is a fitting tribute to Tony to see several past Ryder Cup players coming to Nailcote Hall to take up the challenges of the tricky Par 3 course.

Joining Tony is Tommy Horton, whose 23 victories on the Seniors’ Tour has just been equalled by Carl Mason. Other Ryder Cup favourites include, Brian Waites, Malcolm Gregson, Maurice Benbridge and Gordon J Brand. In addition, recent 1st time Seniors’ Winner and Ryder Cup Vice Captain at the K Club, David J Russell, is returning to Nailcote for the first time in a decade.

There are certainly some top quality players in this year’s Championship with past Champions, Shaun P Webster, Carl Mason, Mark Mouland and Steve Carter all playing.

They will also be joined by past Tour Winners, Malcolm McKenzie, Gary Emerson, Phil Golding and Paul Eales. Amongst the current crop of European Tour talent, French Open Champion 2007 Graeme Storm, will be playing with rising new stars Sam Hutsby, Gary Boyd and David Dixon. The Volvo PGA Champion 2004 Scott Drummond, will be playing as well as last year’s 3rd placed, Phil Archer.

Rick Cressman, the owner of Nailcote Hall commented, “I am sure the field of players competing in the Championship this year is the best we’ve ever assembled, so the competition should be spectacular. The course has gone through a few changes since last year so I expect the players to find it in the most challenging condition too!”

With celebrities joining in the fun, like Jasper Carrott, Jimmy Tarbuck, Len Goodman, Peter Schmeichel and Sir Alex Ferguson, the 4 day festival of golf is sure to be very entertaining.

Carl Mason Returns To The Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship

Course record holder Carl Mason returns to the Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship. European Seniors’ Tour No. 1 Money Winner, Carl Mason is taking up the challenge of the British Par 3 Championship at Nailcote Hall for the first time in a decade.



Back in 1999, Carl won the championship when he also set the course record with an amazing 6 under par 21 for 9 holes. Since then, Carl has enjoyed consistent success on the European Seniors’ Tour and only 2 weeks ago equalled Tommy Horton’s record of 23 victories.

Tommy who will be playing at Nailcote again this year is still the No. 2 money winner on the Seniors’ Tour and is sure to give Carl a run for his money in this year’s Championship.

Rick Cressman the owner of Nailcote Hall commented “It’s really great to have Carl coming back. None of us who witnessed his course record could quite believe it when it happened. It will be interesting to see what he thinks of all the course changes we’ve made since he last played here”

The competition should be terrific this year with 30 European Tour and Seniors Tour players joined by 30 top regional PGA players over the 2 days 36 holes championship in August 11th and 12th.

Celebrity/Am team days on the 10th and 13th will be entertaining too, with lots of stars of TV, Sport and Entertainment coming to test their short game at Nailcote.
