The upcoming Challenge Tour event in Austria, the Euram Bank Open, will feature Dubai-based golfer Joel Stalter, who won the tournament in 2020 at the same venue. Stalter is looking to replicate his success this year and has fond memories of the GC Adamstal, Ramsau course. The tournament will take place from July 18th to 21st, offering a cash prize of €270,000. Stalter, who just celebrated his 32nd birthday, is excited to return to a course where he has had previous victories.
Stalter had an impressive performance in the 2020 Euram Bank Open, shooting 14 under par over four rounds to secure the top prize. He believes that his game is in good shape and is hopeful for another successful week on the course. Stalter also has a history of success in Austria, having previously won the Austrian Amateur Championship at GC Adamstal in 2011. He is familiar with the area, highlighting the stunning scenery and the warm welcome he receives from the hosts at the Bed and Breakfast where he stays.
The Euram Bank Open at GC Adamstal has become a recurring event on both the DP World Tour and the Challenge Tour. The course is known for being one of the shortest on the Challenge Tour, measuring at 6,473 yards with a par of 70. Stalter will have stiff competition from other talented golfers, including Joshua Grenville-Wood, Garrick Porteous, and Dominic Foos, all of whom have strong rankings in the Challenge Tour’s Road to Mallorca standings. Last year’s champion, Casey Jarvis, went on to earn a DP World Tour card and has had notable success in the current season.
Stalter is optimistic about his performance in the upcoming Euram Bank Open and is prepared to give his best on the course. With his previous victories at GC Adamstal, he hopes to make it a hat-trick of wins at the same venue. The tournament promises to be a competitive and exciting event, with talented golfers from around the world vying for the top spot and the lucrative cash prize. As Stalter prepares to tee off in Austria, golf enthusiasts will be eagerly watching to see if he can add another victory to his impressive career record.
