09.08.2022
With less than two weeks to go, both Poland's Adrian Meronk and Great Britain's Danny Willett will be serious contenders for the final victory. The field of players is getting better every week, and the competition looks exciting.
In early July, Adrian Meronk made history by becoming the first Polish player to win on the DP World Tour as he triumphed by three strokes at the 2022 Horizon Irish Open. His victory came two years after becoming the first player from Poland to earn membership on the DP World Tour. In November 2020, the 29-year-old started to shine as he finished 2T in the Alfred Dunhill Open in South Africa, followed by a string of strong performances, including a runner-up finish at the 2021 Italian Open. But it is really at the beginning of this year that the Polish player takes off, as he is regularly ranked in the top 4 - fourth at the Dubai Desert Classic, third at the Qatar Masters, at the Catalunya Championship and also at the Dutch Open, two weeks before his victory at the Irish Open. With these results, he fully deserves his current 8th place in the European ranking.
As for Danny Willett, winner of the Augusta Masters in 2016, he will participate for the twelfth time in the tournament in Crans-Montana. A tournament he won in 2015. His impressive record speaks for itself, with the win of a major tournament, as well as eight victories on the European Tour, the last one last October at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in St. Andrews, Scotland. He also finishes runner-up in the final ranking of the Race to Dubai in 2015 and 2016 thanks to solid performances throughout the year. He will undoubtedly be a tough opponent to be reckoned with.
Come and see these exceptional players challenge each other in an exceptional place!
