3rd place for Canada at the Porsche Golf Cup World Final

After a two-year break, the Porsche Golf Cup returned for a big double header. The 2020 and 2022 World Finals were staged one after the other on the spectacular Club de Golf Alcanada and Canyamel Golf courses in summerly conditions.

The delighted winners of the worldwide qualifying tournaments where about 14,000 golfers competed against each other in 16 (2020) and 17 (2022) markets respectively duly booked their tickets for the World Final in Mallorca. In total, more than 120 golfers competed at both World Finals. They competed for the World Trophy in the team event and in five individual classes (gross women and men plus three mixed net classes) over two rounds using the Stableford system.

“Being able to enjoy the event again is arguably the biggest win of the 2020 and 2022 Porsche Golf Cup World Finals,” says Sebastian Mertke, Director Global Community Management at Porsche AG. “We’ve seen just how incredibly inspiring and enriching it is when people share their passions and come together in beautiful places as a community. The week in Mallorca was shaped by people from a multitude of nations mixing with each other and the fantastic atmosphere generated by the great spirit within the Porsche family.”

Team Japan came out on top in the team competition at the 2020 Porsche Golf Cup World Final (20 – 23 June), whilst Karen Schmidt (Team Mexico; HCP 7.8) and Dr Luigi D’Amico (Team Italy; HCP -1.3) pipped their closest rivals in the gross classes due to a better second round after finishing with the same number of points in the extremely exciting competitions.

The team trophy at the 2022 Porsche Golf Cup World Final (23 – 26 June) was won by Team Mexico. It crowned a impressive overall performance by the country during the week in Mallorca. The title in the gross classes were secured by Meike Leichtle (Team Germany; HCP -0.6) and Helmut Konrad (Team Austria, HCP 1.7) who went round in one under par on the first day at Canyamel. Meike Leichtle not only won in the gross class, the young golfer from the Stuttgart GC Solitude was also victorious in the nearest-to-the-pin and longest drive competitions.
