Hi Simon,

On behalf of the European Tour Group, I would just like to express my sincere thanks to everyone at Desert Springs for hosting the Qualifying School again this year. There is no doubt that the week was a great success and built on all that has been achieved over recent years. The general condition of the course was better than ever and provided the best playing surfaces I have ever seen at the resort. It was also very “clean” in the desert areas which made it a lot neater and a lot more equitable for the players. Ricardo and his team deserve our congratulations of all their efforts to deliver such a good course.

Having a good week of weather clearly helped – until Sunday when the storm came along to throw a spanner in the works! It’s such a pity that this hit the area but given the catastrophic conditions seen across some parts of Spain, Desert Springs probably got away lightly. Thankfully, we were able to conclude the tournament the following morning.

It was fantastic that we were able to complete our new agreement prior to this year’s tournament and we are delighted to be able continue our association with Desert Springs for a further three years. I’m glad that we had the opportunity to raise a glass to our ongoing collaboration and the future success of the Q School at Desert Springs.

Whilst the dates are in the new agreement, for the record I can confirm that the tournament will be in the same week next year with the following schedule:

Day Round
Tuesday 28th October Practice
Wednesday 29th October Practice
Thursday 30th October Round 1
Friday 31st October Round 2
Saturday 1st November Round 3
Sunday 2nd November Round 4
Monday 3rd November Reserved in case of curtailment to play

 

Thank you for all your support and to your whole team for making us so welcome at Desert Springs. We look forward to returning in 2025!

Many thanks

Regards

Mike Stewart
