The continental European swing continues with the Austrian Open, which this year is being held at Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith golf club (KSR). KSR had previously hosted a Hotel Planner tour event in 2003 that was won at -23 with an average score 0f -0.92. For this year's event, the nines have been swapped and a number of new tees have lengthened the course by a net 300 yards. This includes losing 100 yards by turning what was a short par 4 into a long par 3. A short par 5 has

The Soudal Open is back at Rinkven Golf Club in Belgium for the fifth year in a row. Rinkven is a very short 6,940-yard par 71 weaving through thick forest with some ponds and creeks occasionally coming into play. Despite its lack of length, it hasn’t been a complete pushover with narrow playing corridors and bentgrass greens. The last four years have seen a winning score and scoring averages of -13 and -0.04, -18 and -1.22, -17 and -0.65 and -13 and +0.28. Last year had a dr
