Esteemed major winners, Ryder Cup legends, and seasoned tour professionals are drawn back not only by the high-caliber competition but also by an environment that harmoniously blends world-class golf with sophisticated living, wellness activities, and the stunning natural beauty of Barbados.
Henrik Stenson Makes His Legends Tour Debut
This year’s tournament is further enhanced by the debut of the 2016 Open Champion, Henrik Stenson, widely regarded as one of Europe’s most accomplished modern golfers. His impressive career includes six PGA TOUR victories, eleven DP World Tour wins, a FedEx Cup title, and a Race to Dubai championship.

Stenson shared his enthusiasm: “I haven’t visited Barbados in twenty years, but it’s a beautiful island, and the Apes Hill course looks magnificent. I’m eager to play my first event on the Staysure Legends Tour in such a spectacular location.”
Ian Woosnam’s Signature Event Continues to Grow
