The European Tour Qualifying School is an annual golf tournament which enables professional golfers to gain a place on the European Tour and its official development tour, the Challenge Tour. [1] [2]
The European Tour Qualifying School is held in three stages, with the final stage being played over six rounds at Infinitum Golf (formerly the Lumine Golf Club) in Spain. [3] After four rounds, the field is reduced from 156 to 70 plus ties. From 2024, the top 20 (previously top 25) players including ties win their card on the European Tour. The remaining players who make the 72-hole cut are fully exempt on the Challenge Tour. [4]
