Exhibition type Tournaments

Exhibition type tournaments are made for television events. They are generally one-day events with a limited number of very well-known, charismatic participants, held at an important or meaningful venue. The edited version prepared for television broadcast is reduced to approximately one hour which includes the local scenario sequences, historical and cultural segments, player profiles and interviews and is distributed to the main broadcasting channels around the world, thus ensuring a potential viewing audience of hundreds of millions.

Amen Corner, S.A. has staged, amongst others, two important events that produced very noteworthy international repercussions: the "Royal Green Cup '93" and "1995 Canaries Cup". Both events brought together four élite players in a matchplay team challenge between, in the first place, Spain and the USA; namely, Tom Watson and Payne Stewart against Seve Ballesteros and José María Olazábal, held on Seve's beautiful home course in his native Pedreña. The second event, aided by the Canaries local government and held at the Royal Las Palmas Golf Club, a virtual oasis set atop an extinguished crater surrounded by jagged black peaks, was a similar type of match with the British pair, Colin Montgomerie and Sam Torrance face to face with the "invincible Ballesteros/Olazábal tandem". Both were highly successful events and were viewed over the five continents.

This format admits almost every variety of play and style (Stableford, Matchplay, Skins, etc.). The client, sponsors, television and players determine the type of event to be staged.
