The Disabled British Open

After a very successful inaugural Disabled British Open 2009, the 2010 tournament will take place at East Sussex National Golf Resort & Spa on Monday 20th and Tuesday 21st September.

The Disabled British Open is the first truly pan-disablity amateur golf tournament, offering golfers with a wide range of disabilities the opportunity to compete against each other according to their golf handicaps. The tournament also offers the more elite golfers the opportunity to compete in a "gross" strokeplay tournament to become the Disabled British Open Champion of the year.

The Disabled British Open Golf Championship is supported by the Accentuate programme, which aims to use the inspiration provided by the International Paralympic Movement and the unique heritage of the south-east as the birthplace of disability sport to change the lives of disabled people.

St George’s Hill’s Duncan Hamilton-Martin was the winner of the inaugural Disabled British Open at Old Thorns Manor Hotel, in Hampshire on August 24th & 25th 2009.

The winner of category 1 (handicaps 0-9.4) - Alasdair Berry
The winner of category 2 (handicaps 9.5-18.4) - Andrew McDonald
The winner of category 3 (handicaps 18.5 and above) - Richard Saunders
