Very difficult for a non Korean speaker to get information about the event. I e best place to stay, if shuttle buses were running and where to catch them.
Agree with not enough ease of access nor seating areas outside the main arena. Outlying seating on various holes should be provided. This has been a common and reoccurring issue on all LIV golf events we have attended.
Entry requirements of NO food or Drink was NOT communicated on our tickets and spoilt our visit.
It's a little difficult to not be over critical when the event was so badly affected by the weather. Having attended before the set-up at Carnoustie was as good as previous, with staff very helpful and scores up-dated regularly and clearly. I did find in a couple of places bottle necks for spectators particularly around the 9th tee, 12th green and 13th tee having to turn round against the flow to move on. The was a distinct lack of toilet facilities actually on the course and only one refreshment point at the 10th green. My main criticism was not getting early enough up-dates on play when the weather hit on Saturday 7 & Sunday. The website seemed to take far to long in advising when and if play would start or not. I was also puzzled why spectators were not encouraged to attend on Monday. I was in accommodation in Carnoustie but leaving for home that day and didn't want to travel to St Andrews thus incurring a difficult route home.
Despite the negative bits a great tournament and a huge 'well done' to the Greenstaff in getting play possible.
Clearly the inclement weather and consequent 2 day postponement was not the fault of the organisers but the communication to the fans was poor. We spent hours on our mobiles stuck in cafes and hotels waiting for updates. I think in future you should direct the fans to a particular site that will provide you with the updates. We attended Kingsbarns on the Saturday morning and no one knew what was happening. There was no real sheltering areas and hot drinks for the public were not available.
Disgraceful Treatment. Tried for over a year to return tickets. Sent dozens of emails to all parts of Ryder Cup. Not one reply not a single one UNTIL three months out when a general email finally arrived telling me they were non-refundable. I lost nearly £2k on tickets. Would have been my 4th Ryder. Never again.
I must be the only golf enthusiast with coeliac. Absolutely nothing in terms of gluten-free or allergy information. You get told to ask the staff at the different eating venues - guess what? Not a single one I asked provided GF& I asked several. So thanks for leading me to believe there would be at least one place that would cater for GF as opposed to NONE! If you don’t mind starving all day it is a great day out! PS if there is a GF food seller then maybe [they] should have made that clear - no wait maybe I was supposed to ask every single food seller right?
Poor organisation from the start! The "opening ceremony" was a shambles! Asking for more money to attend was an utter disgrace and no wonder it was empty! What was the Queen tribute all about? Cringe worthy. No buses from Estepona even though it was the nearest big town! Everything went from moneybags Marbella!
The course was ridiculous to walk and not well signposted and I got lost trying to find my way back to the Plaza (seating area and big screen)
First day I went I had my water taken off me and no food was allowed either so we had to buy ridiculously priced water and basic food. It was €4 for a small froth filled beer.
Hardly any shade or seating for the many fans tired from walking the hilly course.
The final day was boiling hot! Again hardly any shade and you had to PAY an upgrade to obtain a wooden seat that took 2 men hours to put into place. Which should have been done earlier in the day or night before. Loads of faffing about by staff moving chairs and large potted plants whilst we tried to watch the matches on the one screen in the entire venue
Had to leave early on the last day as we knew we wouldn't be able to get back due to lack of transport to Estepona.
Overall an expensive underwhelming experience! A cash cow for the organisers from start to finish.
Would have liked some occasional bleachers for general admission tickets
The golf course was not at all fan friendly . It is a playing course not a walking course . No consideration for fans of all ages who spent a lot of money to support The Solheim Cup .
2023 was awesome
Great day out, well organised from a park and ride perspective. Catering prices a joke and people should he limted on beer if it turns them into 10 year olds shouting out on every shot and littering the place.
More lines to more P&R buses
Covered seating for watching the big screen in the event of rain as this year
More lines for bag checking which was so ineffectual…. no search of bags; could gave carried a gun through!
Excellent day out, highly recommended.
Brilliant day
Great day
The tournament was pretty good, but I found a great place to stay right across the street on Redweek which provided easy access.
Went to the see the golf on Saturday with my son. He left his car in the park & ride.
Excellent day at the event in Straffan. Staff friendly and courteous. Would go again however when I left early and returned to the park and ride where my wife was due to pick me up a young garda on traffic duty would not allow her to turn into the park & ride to turn even though the stewards on duty told me she could do so. This left a dangerous situation for my wife as she had to turn further up the road and pick me up from the road. Pity, as it ruined an otherwise excellent day. Maybe a better plan re-drop offs and pick ups at the park & ride
The event was very well organized. Communications was always very timely if there were any changes. The volunteer staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Overall, a great event. The golf was absolutely phenomenal. The golfers were professional and still personable and took time to engage with the crowd!
A great experience from start to finish. We went to KClub on Friday and Saturday. The event was well sign posted to Park and Ride. Plenty buses around to ferry people to K Club. Entry was quick through security and ticket checker. There was a variety of food outlets in the The Village. Also a bar, Coffee etc Van and Ice Cream van. All that we used were quick and efficient. Plenty staff in all places. Other facilities there for children and a Putting Green for donation to Make A Wish. An information stand and we were assisted by a very good lady. Toilet facilities there were well attended and always clean when I used them. There were more food and beverages trucks at different holes on the course. Also Toilet facilities around various holes. We had a lovely 2 days going around the course watching golf. A really enjoyable 2 days. Would recommend to snuone to go even if not a golfer. Will be back in 2025. Please God we will be there. Thanks to all the organisers. Well done.
