The future of golf tournaments is here; for the first time all golfers in the USA and in Europe can enjoy golf together, regardless of age, gender or HCP. The six-week GameBook Cup is open to all golfers from the two continents and can be played on any course in the world. With the help of the latest mobile technology, the GameBook Cup offers a more social and equal way of experiencing golf. Join Here for free.
Inspired by the legendary golf tournament the Ryder Cup, the GameBook Cup launches as the first transatlantic golf challenge of its kind. All golfers from the USA and Europe can play in this fun and friendly golf challenge. Experienced team captains have been nominated; Team USA has British Open Champion Stewart Cink, and Team Europe is led by European Tour golfer Johan Edfors.
“The only thing a golfer has to do is to play a round of golf anywhere in the world and enter his or her scorecard using Golf GameBook. We will automatically include all scores from golfers who are registered respectively in the USA or in any European country”, says Mikko Rantanen, the CEO of Golf Gamebook Inc.
The world’s largest golf challenge will be held between July 30th and September 9th, 2012, and it is free for golfers and golf clubs. Every week, a new golf challenge is announced. The opening week’s challenge is to make the most birdies. Players can complete the first week’s challenge until and including August 5th.
