The memorable 50th fierce battle! Who will win the milestone tournament! ? “2024 ANA Open Golf Tournament” will be thoroughly broadcast on CS broadcast NTV from the 2nd day on Friday, September 13th!
The Sapporo Golf Club’s Wanatsu Course has been the setting for the traditional golf tournament “ANA Open Golf Tournament” for many years. This year is the milestone 50th tournament. Shoji “Jumbo” Ozaki, who has the most wins in history, won the first championship at the first tournament in 1973, and won seven times until his last championship at the 30th tournament in 2002. Isao Aoki, who was known as “AON” and competed for the championship with Shoji Ozaki, won once in the 15th 1987 tournament after finishing 2nd place four times. Tsuneyuki Nakajima had four wins, second only to Masashi Ozaki.
After 2000, players who would lead the next generation of men’s golf emerged, such as Nobuto Sato, Keiichiro Fukahori, and Tomohiro Kondo. Yuta Ikeda, the winner of the 38th tournament in 2010, shed tears on the 18th hole as he won his first victory at Watasu, which was loved by his idol Shoji Ozaki. At the 43rd tournament in 2015, then-host pro Ryo Ishikawa won the tournament for the first time. The 48th tournament in 2022 will be a three-way event with Yuta Ikeda, Ryo Ishikawa, and Tomoharu Otsuki. The fierce battle that dragged on into the playoffs came to a dramatic end with Tomoharu Otsuki’s shot-in eagle.
The key to controlling the dramatic development of the ANA Open Golf Tournament is the characteristic uphill three holes in the second half of the Watasu course.
No. 16: A short hole where wind reading and club selection are important. No. 17: A long hole with an attractive “crossing the forest” aiming for a 2-hit shot over tall trees.
No. 18: A middle hole with a three-tiered green that has made the difference between victory and defeat many times.
Who will get the glory that awaits at the end of the fateful final hole, the creek? ? A heated battle between top professionals is expected.
On the CS broadcast Nippon Telejitas, we will deliver the heated battle for victory in which male professional golfers compete for skill and power, along with nostalgic footage and history of the tournament that can only be seen at the milestone 50th tournament.
