Munich. A high-class field, led by Major winners
Martin Kaymer (GER), Sergio García (ESP) and Louis Oosthuizen (RSA),
has been confirmed for the BMW International Open (22nd to 26th June
2022, Golfclub München Eichenried). This year’s prize purse for the
most iconic professional golf event in Germany, which BMW is staging
for the 33rd time, stands at two million euros overall, making the BMW
International Open the most lucrative German golf tournament.
As well as Kaymer, García and Oosthuizen, fans can also look forward
to seeing Ryder Cup players Bernd Wiesberger (AUT) and Rafa Cabrera
Bello (ESP), reigning “DP World Tour Rookie of the Year” Matti Schmid
(GER), and two more top German players, in Max Kieffer and Marcel Siem.
In 2022, the pros will have the opportunity to win an extraordinary
Hole-in-One Car with an ace on the 17th hole (par 3). Even before it
makes its world premiere in a few weeks’ time, the new BMW i7 has been
confirmed as the prize. The world’s first fully-electric luxury
saloon, and with a range of over 600 kilometres, the BMW i7 is
bringing innovative driving pleasure to the streets.
“Everyone at BMW is excited that it looks likely that we will be able
to welcome visitors and golf fans without any restrictions, as well as
a fantastic field of players,” says Zana Koval, Head of Brand
Experience BMW Deutschland. “As the organiser, BMW will raise the
premium visitor experience to a new level. This is reflected in such a
high-class and innovative Hole-in-One Car as the BMW i7.”
The great importance of sustainability is also shown by the shuttle
fleet for the 2022 BMW International Open, which this year consists
entirely of electrified vehicles – charged using green electricity, of course.
Day tickets, season tickets and VIP tickets for the Fairway Club are
available from the online ticket shop (www.bmw-golfsport.com/tickets).
Admission to the Pro-Am, on Wednesday 22nd June, is free of charge.
However, visitors must order a free and personalised admission ticket
in the ticket shop. Those interested can also find information on
discounts in the ticket shop. Tickets can be returned up to three days

the ticket price will be reimbursed.
