I met new friends and that’s important to me how sport have always been people together in different ways and one of them today was golf

Just wanted to say what a great event you had this year.Having been associated with the tournament for several years now, i can see how it has grown and grown. The team should be very proud of what has been achieved.I’m sure it has been very hard work along the way; but now you can really see the benefit. The enthusiasm shown by everyone is plain to see; staff, guests, clients, competitors alike. I am delighted to add something to the mix!

I know how important this event is around the world, and specially to be in the Final here in Cascais. It’s a legendary moment for me, a very importan moment for me. Even if we do different sports, we have different nationalities, we’re reunited by the same passion to see we have the same values.

There is a lot of interest in business around this event and I think is a great idea, golf is the perfect vehicle to get this done. Also, some of these Sport Legends were my heroes, and to see them in my game, trying to play golf, is a wonderful feeling.
