As a worldwide company Soudal is very proud to support an important international tournament. Belgian players are performing at a very high level on the Tour, and now it is time for a tournament at the same level, so our best players can finally play a home game. The Soudal Open will also become the hotspot for Belgian entrepreneurs, with highlevel networking and exclusive content.

With this Soudal Open we want to recreate the magic of major golf tournaments in this country. Golazo has been active in many areas of the golf scene for several years.

An important golf open fits that strategy perfectly. We especially want to help make golf even more accessible in our country and promote the sport to thousands of Belgians as an ideal way of exercising.
