  Found it by chance on the playing list of a local (Dutch) WGT player. When I enter it says the closest-to-the-hole-competition finishes at Sept 12.

  Thanks, Anton, it is fine! WGT is a perfect place to raise the awareness of lovely Continental courses like these as well as the European tour in general.

  Maybe somewhere down the line WGT can team up with the European tour to bring whole courses on line in connection with specific tournaments, as they have done with the USGA courses and the British Open. Doing the whole course is apparently a huge undertaking.

  When I first saw some friends updates saying they entered the KLM open I assumed it was a country club tourney. 

  And yes it is a great course. Love the wooden shoes tee markers. Too bad is appears to be available only until September 12th. But why spend the cash to get the photos if you are only going to use it for a month. But it appears that they did that with Pebble as well. I have not seen anything about Pebble being on here since the Open.

  If anybody is interested here is a link to Pebble Beach - You cant take your clubs with you though for some reason. If anyone figures our how to take your own club bag let me know.

  I've only just spotted this KLM tournament, seems very well hidden.  Someone else has asked how we can win tickets to the tournament when the real tournament finishes on the same day this one does?  Still no reply to that, seems a little strange?  Anyone have any ideas?

  They are most likely for next year.  I forget the player, but someone won tickets to the 2010 US Open in mid 2009.

  Bollox will be representing us at the US Open at Congressional in 2011, based on his win in the 2010 Oakmont competition.

  I was in the top 50, now I'm 107th. Those tickets are looking less and less likely now...
