The Cool Million Challenge | The Event And Programme

The entry fee for the event is set at £50,000 per golfer, representing the Sponsorship. All funds received by Probacker, will be held securely until their release to the successful players as per the schedule of prize money.

The Tournament will be run by the PGA under strict PGA rules. They will have the final say on all matters to do with the tournament and will decide the format should a “sudden death” playoff be required.

The Sponsors will have the opportunity to stay within the luxurious accommodation provided at Archerfield links. A room is guaranteed for the Sunday and Monday evenings at which time, if their golfer has made the top 16 cut, they will be invited to stay at Archerfield House for the remainder of the event. Throughout the week the Sponsors will have opportunities to play golf in a guest tournament and short game challenge.
