The Gleneagles Foursomes
11–15May
Pairs spend a spring week at Gleneagles playing alternate shots over the King's and Queen's courses. The Gleneagles Foursomes is a knockout open to amateurs and professionals, men and women, in any pairing you like. The pairs knocked out in the qualifying round play on for the Silver Salver, so nobody's week ends early. Your entry includes a practice round together on the King's or the Queen's on the opening Tuesday. The tournament runs from 11 to 15 May 2027, the entry is £340 a pair, and every entry goes into a ballot, with the field confirmed by 18 December 2026.
