THE CHAMPIONSHIPS, WIMBLEDON & BEST OF ENGLAND GOLF TOUR JULY 7–15, 2022 WIMBLEDON • THE ROYAL ST GEORGE'S GOLF CLUB • SUNNINGDALE
WIMBLEDON & ENGLAND 2022 CHAMPIONSHIP TENNIS PAIRED WITH A spectacular line-up of championship golf venues. Historic and modern greats have graced the courts of Wimbledon. Royal St George’s Golf Club will have just hosted The 149th Open. A natural pairing, Wimbledon and the finest heathland and links golf in England – it is our pleasure to host this unique journey as we attend championship weekend at Wimbledon and play three timeless English courses, each ranked among the world’s top 100. We begin in London at the stylish and traditional Brown’s Hotel in Mayfair, the city's oldest hotel, ideally situated to explore this wonderful neighborhood in close proximity to Buckingham Palace, St. James Park, Hyde Park and a multitude of cultural and shopping venues. Every detail has been taken care of during your stay, from breakfast to a three- course lunch at Wimbledon and transfers to and from the All England Lawn Tennis Club. Our reserved seats at Centre Court on Saturday and Sunday provide the perfect vantage point from which to see the gentlemen’s and ladies' singles and doubles final matches. Next, we transfer south to Ascot, where we check in to Coworth Park, an English country house set on sprawling grounds. From here, we play both Sunningdale courses, New and Old, and play Royal St George’s Golf Club, accessed by helicopter. An optional pre-tour visits England's Golf Coast to play three Open venues: Royal Liverpool, Royal Birkdale and Royal Lytham & St Annes. This is truly the ultimate combination of exclusive sporting venues, five-star service and accommodations. www.KalosGolf.com 919.942.3464 Memorable Golf Adventures
Royal Liverpool ....... ROYAL GOLF PRE-TOUR July 3–8, 2022 Plan to arrive in Manchester, England on July 4. You will be transferred to The Chester Grosvenor, in the heart of the idyllic town of Chester, England, just south of Liverpool, where we stay for four nights. Over the next three days, we play three Open venues: Royal Liverpool (ranked #81 in the world by Golf Digest), Royal Birkdale (#23) and Royal Lytham & St Annes (#57). Playing these three historic Open sites is an ideal way to enhance our championship experience. In 2017, Jordan Spieth won in memorable fashion at Royal Birkdale as Matt Kuchar had a front row seat to one of the most thrilling escapes in Open history. Royal Liverpool, set to host The 151st Open in 2023, was the scene of Rory McIlroy’s wire-to-wire Open victory in 2014. And, Ernie Els provided the drama at Royal Lytham & St. Annes in 2012 as he birdied the final hole to win his second Open, edging out Adam Scott by that one final stroke. We look forward to making wonderful memories at these three top-100 world-ranked courses. Royal Golf Pre-Tour price is detailed below and includes: four nights accommodations at The Chester Grosvenor, breakfast each morning, three rounds of golf, lunch during golf, transfers to and from golf courses, transfer from Manchester Airport on July 4 and transfer to Brown's Hotel London via train on July 8; additional charges may be incurred for transfers on other arrival dates. ✧ $3,685 per golfer, double occupancy in an Executive Room ✧ $4,235 per golfer, double occupancy in a Deluxe Suite ✧ $4,595 for golf in a Single Executive Room www.KalosGolf.com 919.942.3464 Memorable Golf Adventures

With vast, rolling grounds and multiple dining options, from the informal brasserie-style Barn to the Michelin-starred Restaurant, the entire experience at Coworth Park is sublime perfection. Overnight: Coworth Park www.KalosGolf.com 919.942.3464 Memorable Golf Adventures
The Royal St George's Golf Club ....... July 12: Ascot Golf: The Royal St George's Golf Club Today, we fly round trip by helicopter directly between Coworth Park and The Royal St George's Golf Club, where we land within a few steps of the clubhouse. Ranked #28 in the world by Golf Digest, Royal St George’s will have hosted 15 Open Championships before we play, including the first Open outside of Scotland in 1894 and the 2021 Open. This seaside links course overlooking the North Sea is a wonderful test of golf as it changes direction multiple times in its routing through natural dunes, and is sure to be a treat to play the season following The Open. Tour: Highclere Castle Touring guests visit Highclere Castle, made popular as the setting for the Masterpiece Theatre series and movie Downton Abbey. Our tour will include visits to the state rooms and the castle garden and grounds, where our guides will share their intimate knowledge and anecdotes regarding the unique history of the buildings, artwork and residents. Overnight: Coworth Park ....... July 13: Ascot Golf: Sunningdale Golf Club – New Course Opened in 1923, the New Course is Harry Colt's immediate follow up to Pine Valley, and you may see some striking similarities, including an abundance of forced carries. Ranked #35 in the world by Golf Digest, the New Course gives the impression of being quite forgiving because the tees appear to offer a wide view, but looks can be deceiving. In most aspects, the New offers a bit more of a test than the Old. With similar heathland layouts and topographies, it will be a pleasure to play both of these classic courses at Sunningdale back to back. Tour: Mottisfont Abbey Today, we visit Mottisfont Abbey, a medieval priory with a still visible 13th century cellarium. The former Augustinian priory was transformed into a luxurious country house in 1935. Our private tour includes visits to the main state rooms and the drawing room, painted in trompe l’oeil effect by Rex Whistler. The lovely gardens, on the edge of the River Test, should be in full bloom for our enjoyment. Our guide shares anecdotes regarding the unique history of the abbey, its artwork and past residents. The tour is followed by lunch in the charming town of Winchester. Overnight: Coworth Park Helicopter to Royal St George's www.KalosGolf.com 919.942.3464 Memorable Golf Adventures
Sunningdale Golf Club – Old Course ....... July 14: Ascot Golf: Sunningdale Golf Club – Old Course Designed by Willie Park Jr. and opened for play in 1901, the Old Course at Sunningdale is regarded by many as the perfect golfing venue, exemplified by its current rank of number 15 in the world by Golf Digest. A heathland course beautifully defined by pine, birch, oak, gorse and heather, the Old Course starts with a short par-five that eases you into the round. Coming home, you will be tested by some of the finest holes in golf, with a wonderful mix of short and long par- fours and long par-threes. Accuracy from the tee and on the approach is at a premium in order to avoid strategically-placed bunkers and precisely account for dramatic elevation changes. Tour: Windsor Castle Home to the recent Royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Windsor Castle is also one of the Queen’s favorite weekend homes. The largest and oldest inhabited castle in the world has been home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years. We will enjoy a guided tour of the State Apartments, Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House, St George’s Chapel and gardens, with lunch in Windsor before heading back to Ascot. Overnight: Coworth Park ....... July 15: Ascot • London • Home We bid farewell to Coworth Park this morning and transfer to London airports for home bound flights. www.KalosGolf.com 919.942.3464 Memorable Golf Adventures

ABOUT K ALOS GOLF In 1994, we introduced the golf cruise, a new concept in travel. Chartering boutique ships, we began hosting a select number of country club members aboard what became our own private club afloat, escorting guests comfortably and stylishly to the top courses and touring destinations in Europe. These small groups of travelers appreciated the exceptional personalized service, unique and comfortable accommodations we offered, and enjoyed the camaraderie of old and new friends along the way. Since our founding, we have continuously enhanced our service and expanded our selection of uniquely designed itineraries to the finest golf and touring destinations around the world by land and ship, by private jet and chartered aircraft. In the process, we’ve created enduring relationships and special memories with our loyal clients. Kalos Golf itineraries combine the best of global golf and touring with five-star service, whether by sea, air or land. We privately charter vessels that accommodate a small number of like-minded guests, and stay at unique and distinctive boutique properties throughout our journeys. In essence, these small groups become a private club and create the ideal atmosphere for an intimate golf and travel experience. In addition to great golf in historic locations, we arrange daily tours for those not playing golf. We visit cultural, historic and culinary treasures around the world, where our focus is on private experiences that allow us to avoid large crowds, as our expert guides and staff ensure a memorable, distinct and safe journey throughout. .......

GOLF’S FINEST TR AVEL EXPERIENCE The truth about great international golf courses is that they are typically in close proximity to fascinating cultural and historic venues, immersed in unique landscapes ripe for discovery, making our trips ideal for couples in which one spouse is a passionate golfer, and one may rather tour. We dedicate as much purpose to planning and executing our touring programs as we do our golf line-up; no other golf tour operator can make this promise. We know our clients demand stimulating experiences beyond golf and strive to present our guests with a rich blend of choices between golf and touring each day. Even the heartiest golfers among our guests often remark, “it was tough to decide today between the tour and the links.” Each day, touring passengers will have the option to experience fascinating cultural and historic or culinary and wine tours. On some days, golfers and tour guests will spend the day touring together and on others, they will get together for a private wine tasting or tour after golf. We challenge you to find a touring program with any other luxury golf tour operator that is as robust, inclusive and exclusive as you will find on a Kalos Golf tour.
