Win tickets to the Ryder Cup and a seven-night cruise!

Win tickets to the Ryder Cup in Rome and arrive in style on a luxury cruise liner, all thanks to the Golf Lottery!

It’s the ultimate golf holiday, worth a whopping €3,700! The lucky winner and a guest will enjoy a seven-night European Cruise from Barcelona and watch the first day of action at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club, one of the best golf courses in Italy.

You will travel with Costa Cruises – the Official Cruise Line of the Ryder Cup – on Costa Smeralda, the company’s flagship liner. It is dedicated to Costa Cruises Mediterranean golf offerings, taking in a selection of top European courses.

What’s included in the prize?

The prize includes an oceanside cabin room with a balcony that has a private bathroom and shower, adjustable air-conditioning and 40-inch TV. It is home to an aqua park, a next-generation spa and gym, 11 restaurants and snack bars, and 19 bars and lounges. The cruise will depart Barcelona on Monday, September 25 as it begins its seven-night journey around Europe.

Costa Smeralda will dock in both Palma de Mallorca and Palermo before arriving in Rome on Friday, September 29 – the opening day of the highly anticipated 2023 Ryder Cup contest between Europe and the USA.

Costa Cruises are offering ryder Cup packages.

Once in Rome, you will receive two tickets to the first day of action at Marco Simone as Europe – led by former World No.1 Luke Donald (read our exclusive interview) – look to win back the famous trophy they lost at Whistling Straits, Wisconsin, in 2021.

Transits to and from the ship for the Ryder Cup will be included before Costa Smeralda departs the Italian capital at 9pm. The ship will then visit Savona in the Italian region of Liguria, before stopping in Marseille prior to returning to Barcelona on Monday, October 2.

The lucky winners will travel on Costa Smeralda.

There’s even a Ryder Cup runners-up prize!

If you’re not lucky enough to win the top prize, there’s a runners-up prize of two weekly tickets for the Ryder Cup, meaning you and a guest will be there for all of the action, from practice days through to Sunday singles.

Plus, every week before the main prizes are drawn, someone will win a year’s supply of golf balls!

The incredible prizes are being provided by the Golf Lottery in association with Costa Cruises.
