Eye on the National Final

Looking ahead to the National Final on June 14th in Óbidos, the team acknowledged the shift in competitive format—from cumulative scores per hole to a more aggressive fourball betterball format, inviting tactical risk-taking and higher scoring potential. “We’re confident, but aware of the challenge. Representing Portugal in the World Final in Shanghai would be a dream.”

WCGC Portugal, a platform for Business and Brand Connection

The qualifier in Ponte de Lima once again reinforced the World Corporate Golf Challenge’s positioning as the global stage where golf meets business. Ana Massapina and Estela Sargento, WCGC Portugal licensees, reflected on the day’s success:

“The enthusiasm and level of engagement from both players and companies have exceeded our expectations. This event confirms the WCGC’s value as a premium platform for corporate networking through sport.”
