Over thirteen editions, the F.P.Journe Golf Cup has become one of the anticipated early summer fixtures at the Golf Club de Genève. This year, 156 players took part in the Greensome Stableford format.

Founded in 1922, the Golf Club de Genève is one of the oldest in Switzerland. Its 18 holes extend over 47 hectares, facing Lake Geneva with the Alps as a backdrop. The current 6,237-metre course was designed in 1973 by Robert Trent Jones Senior, one of the greatest architects in this sport. It alternates open fairways, protected greens and strategically placed bunkers. The club is also GEO Certified, an international distinction recognising the environmental management of golf courses.

Coming from across Europe, and from even further afield, several collectors joined club members, reflecting the tournament’s appeal beyond Geneva.

At the turn, Chef Dominique Gauthier served one of the dishes from F.P.Journe Le Restaurant, offering a gastronomic pause in the heart of the course: Brittany lobster, broad beans and peas, morels and shellfish jus.

The day ended with a cocktail gathering all participants, followed by the prize-giving ceremony led by François-Paul Journe.
