The Audi North Dublin quattro Cup tees off for 2023 event
Dublin, 28th July 2023: The regional competition of the 2023 Audi quattro Cup came to a close with the Audi North Dublin quattro Cup event on the 27th of July. 120 golfers took part in the tournament at the picturesque Killeen Castle.
Andrew Matheson (Woodbrook Golf Club) and Robert Hurley (Greystones Golf Club) claimed the title of Audi North Dublin quattro Cup champions with a score of 45 points. They, along with the next five highest ranking teams will qualify for the Audi quattro Cup National Final taking place in October at the luxury Druid’s Glen Resort on the newly re-opened Glen Golf Course. The Glen Golf Course has previously hosted four Irish Opens and is nicknamed the ‘Augusta of Europe’ and was recently upgraded to a spectacular 7,222-yard par-72 course, built to USGA standards, which this year’s Audi quattro Cup National Finalists will experience first-hand.
Geoff Walsh, Brand Director at Audi North Dublin commented: “We are thrilled to be back on the golf course once again hosting the Audi North Dublin quattro Cup, the event that celebrates Audi’s historical connection to sport in a golfing context. At Audi, our aim isn’t just to develop mobility solutions that inspire and excite, but to create experiences that truly resonate and connect with our customers on a deeper level. The Audi quattro Cup is a particularly special event in the calendar for Audi North Dublin as an opportunity for the dealership to show appreciation to our loyal customers.”
The Audi North Dublin quattro Cup concludes the regional quattro Cup schedule which took place throughout June and July at some of Ireland’s leading Championship golf clubs. The season will culminate with the Irish National Final. 1,100 amateur golfers from across the country will vie for the ultimate honour of representing Ireland at the 2023 World Final, hosted in the picturesque Al Mouj Golf Club, Oman. This year will mark the 33rd hosting of the prestigious Audi quattro Cup, the largest amateur golf tournament series in the world.
The World Final in November will present finalists from 38 countries across the world, including Ireland, with a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit and play on a World Top 100 golf course on the pristine Indian Ocean coastline of Oman, against a backdrop of the Hajar mountains.
The Audi quattro Cup is a team-based competition with each team consisting of two players and is open to Audi customers and their chosen teammate. The maximum handicap is 36 (index) per player and 56 (index) per team. The handicap difference between the players in a team must not exceed 20.
