The BMW International Open is not only Germany’s longest established and most prestigious professional golf tournament, but it has also long been known for its perfect combination of world-class sport and unique flair. The 34th edition at Golfclub München Eichenried was no different. In glorious summer weather, the spectators enjoyed drama and entertainment from the high-profile Pro-Am and the diverse Tournament Village to the last putt of the final round.

ERNIE‘S LEGACY.

Four days of top-class golf at the 34th BMW International Open ended with a tense and dramatic final round. It was a brilliant birdie on the very demanding 17th that saw South African Thriston Lawrence take a decisive one-shot lead, after which he went on to claim his fourth title on the DP World Tour. Second place went to Joost Luiten (NED), with Max Kieffer (GER), Adrian Meronk (POL), Rikuya Hoshino (JPN) and Daniel Hillier (NZL) tied in third place.

 

“I did not know that Ernie Els was the only South African to have won the BMW International Open. I feel very honoured,” said Lawrence. “He was my idol and his junior foundation really supported me.”

 

The best-placed amateur was Jonas Baumgartner. The 20-year-old from GC Hösel finished tied in 52nd place on +1 (289 shots).

EAGLES FOR EDUCATION.

The BMW Group donated 1,000 Euro for each of the 59 eagles scored at the BMW International Open, and 10,000 Euro for each of the three hole-in-ones. The money went to the “JOBLINGE” and “Kick ins Leben” organisations, with whom the BMW Group has been working towards more equal opportunities and greater educational equality for many years.

 

BMW kicked off ‘Eagles for Education’ by donating 10,000 Euro on behalf of the big names on the practice round, including football stars Gareth Bale (WAL) and Thomas Müller (GER), as well as last year’s winner Haotong Li (CHN) and the current German number one Yannik Paul. This brought the total amount raised to 99,000 Euro.

ELECTRIFYING.

In the 34-year history of the BMW International Open, the Hole-in-One Car has been won on eight occasions. Although three aces were hit at the 2023 tournament, unfortunately none of them were on the all-important 17th hole at Golfclub München Eichenried, which is where the Hole-in-One Award is traditionally up for grabs. This year’s car was the first fully-electric BMW 5 Series ever.

 

The BMW i5 plays a leading role on the road to sustainable premium mobility in the upper middle class and, appropriately for the BMW International Open, is a true Bavarian: as with all previous generations of this model, the new BMW 5 Series saloon is built in the BMW Group plant at Dingolfing, where the electric motors and high-voltage batteries for the BMW i5 are also produced.
