ALGARVE, Portugal — Sixty international golfers with disabilities will head to Portugal's southern coastline this autumn to compete in a featured European Disabled Golf Association (EDGA) Tour event from 15 to 17 November 2026.
The three-day tournament kicks off with an official practice round on Sunday, November 15, followed by two days of competitive championship rounds on Monday and Tuesday. Players will tackle a renowned 18-hole, par-72 course nestled along the region's picturesque coastal dunes and natural lagoons.
"It is a great honor... to host this prestigious EDGA Tour event," said Jon Schauder, Executive spokesman for the venue. "We look forward to the players, officials, and visitors experiencing our venue – and together promoting the continued growth of golf as a game that can be enjoyed by everyone. We want to thank the EDGA for this opportunity and wish all the participants a great few days with us."
The tournament highlights the growing global profile of adaptive sports. EDGA’s core mission focuses on helping individuals with impairments start, stay, succeed, and enjoy the sport.
To maintain competitive fairness, the association structures international events into clear player criteria:
The hosting venue—recently awarded "2025 World’s Best Golf Course Renovation" by the World Golf Awards—is situated adjacent to the Salgados Beach and Salgados Lagoon Nature Reserve, offering elite course architecture paired with high-quality hospitality amenities.
