President’s Message

On behalf of the European Golf Association, may I extend a warm welcome to all competitors, officials and supporters

for the 2018 European Ladies’ Amateur Championship.

Sincere thanks go to the Slovak Golf Association for organising this Championship, also to the officials, staff

and volunteers who do so much to make this event possible.

I also extend my thanks to the members and officials of Penati Golf Resort for allowing us the privilege to play

this championship on their excellent Course.

This event is an important one with many past winners and medallists featuring in the Professional Tours, it is without

doubt we will see golf of the highest standard and will be watching many of the stars of the future.

I would like to wish you all every success, an enjoyable championship and many fond and lasting memories.

Pierre Bechmann

President of the European Golf Association

FOREWORD PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN GOLF ASSOCIATION

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, dear Golfers,

on behalf of the Slovak Golf Association I would like to welcome you at the European Ladies’ Amateur Championship 2018,

which takes place at the beautiful Heritage course at the PENATI GOLF RESORT in Slovakia.

The Slovak republic got already several times the opportunity to host the EGA tournaments, if we mention boys,

girls, senior ladies team and the Ladies‘ club trophy championships or the International European Mid-Amateur

Championship, which was by coincidence held directly at the Legend Course by Nicklaus Design in Šajdíkove Humence.

I am convinced that this golf course can totally check up playing skills of the best European amateur players

and we will see first-class golf.

I wish to you all an enjoyable time and successfull game.

Play well.

Tomáš Stoklasa

President of the Slovak Golf Association

FOREWORD PRESIDENT OF THE SLOVAK GOLF ASSOCIATION

The world-class 36-hole golf facility Penati Golf Resort

is a singular project in Slovakia and a newcomer on

the map of the top golf resorts in Central Europe. It is

situated in the region of Záhorie, near the town of Senica,

not far from the czech-slovak border and less than

an hour drive from two large cities Vienna and Bratislava.

Nature’s ingenuity in this area of Záhorie knows no bounds.

By taking advantage of its environmental characteristics,

and factoring in the needs of sport at a top-notch level,

the beauty and diversity of this area became the underlying

reasons for building this unique golf resort and contributed

to the creation of a true golfing gem. The grounds of

the expansive Penati Golf Resort encompass 217 hectares

of breathtakingly preserved environs.

It consists of two 18-hole courses of the highest

quality: LEGEND COURSE and the HERITAGE COURSE.

The European Ladies’ Amateur Championship is going

to take place on the 18-hole course HERITAGE COURSE

bearing the signature of ambitous architect Johnatan

Davison and his fellow shaper Mick McShane. Golfers

appreciate the short game practice areas - large putting

greens and a large chipping area. A sizeable driving

range of 98 yards by 295 yards is situated alongside

the lake. Players enjoy the option of hitting from covered

stalls or from grass. With its uncommonly large size and

distinctive features Penati Golf Resort is the first golf

complex in Slovakia designed to meet all expectations

of a broad range of golfers. Players can enjoy golf from

early spring to late autumn in the beautiful surroundings

of the Small Carpathians, amidst fragrant pine forests

and shimmering white bunkers.

Penati Golf Resort, Member of the World of Leading Golf,

is the largest golf course in Slovakia, while the ELACH 2018

tournament playground HERITAGE COURSE is ranked

among the TOP 100 Golf Courses of Continental Europe.

Penati Golf Resort is also proud holder of the prestigeos

EUROPE ENVIRO OSCAR for respecting and protecting

the countryside’s natural beauty.

Penati Golf Resort was also Hosting Venue for International

European Amateur Championship 2015 as well as

D+D REAL Slovakia Challenge Tour 2014-2015-2016.
