The course will be tournament-ready at least on the Wednesday 25th of September. Course map will be posted here and on social media channels. The caddy book will be in a PDF format and the Players' meeting will be in a video format and both will be available to registered players via email.
This year's course will be similar to the EPT-X Lipica Open 2023 course with a few changes to specific holes that will be visible on the course map and caddie book. Both will be available at least 3 weeks in advance. Below, you can look up last year's flyovers to get a sense of what to expect at the Lipica Open tournaments.
