To celebrate DP World’s smart partnership with the DP World Tour, the end-to-end logistics company is rewarding the smartest brotherly partnership in this week’s Andalucía Masters with a charity birdie pledge. Donating £100 per birdie and £500 per eagle to a charity of the winning partnership’s choice.

DP World is making a pledge to donate money to charity for every eagle and birdie registered by the best performing pair of brothers at this week’s Estrella Damm Andalucía Masters at Real Club Valderrama, 13th -16th October.

In the field are reigning US Open champion and the event’s defending champion Matt Fitzpatrick and his brother Alex, as well as the impressive Danish twins Rasmus and Nicolai Højgaard.

DP World will make a charitable donation for every birdie and eagle scored by the pair of brothers that lodge the lowest combined score over the four days of play at Valderrama. The charity will be nominated by the winning pair of brothers at the conclusion of the event.

'Support each other'

Talking about the importance of smart partnerships, Nicolai Højgard said, “We support each other. We wait at the 18th green and support each other. I think that important as is well, that it’s not just about who wins between us, it’s that we support each other when we are doing good. And we’ve learned to do that over the years.”

Commenting on DP World’s charitable initiative, his brother Rasmus added, “It’s going to be amazing if we can win the smart partnership competition. I remember back in 2020, I won some money for charity for the first time, it’s probably one of the best feelings you can get.”

DP World and the DP World Tour are celebrating the first year of their ‘Smart Partnership’ with the first anniversary of the announcement falling on 9th November. In celebration of this, DP World will be rewarding the best performing ‘Smart Partnership’ this week.
