The three-day Russian leg of the Faldo series has taken place in the Moscow region for the third time.

In 1996, Sir Nick Faldo created a new charity tournament, the philosophy behind which was to pick out the most talented young golfers and make champions out of them.

Since then the competition has expanded to 30 different events around the globe, with Moscow’s among them, each year attracting more and more golfers and fans.
