The 4th stage of the 2018 edition of the “En route pour 2018” trophy organized by Open Golf Club took place on the magnificent golf course of Marseille la Salette. It is with very weather conditions that the players were able to face this beautiful course, located in the heart of the hills so dear to Marcel Pagnol. And it was under a very beautiful sun that the players were able to appreciate the 4 precision competitions that had been set up for this stage as well as a Lady drive competition and a Men's drive competition.

Each stage of the trophy en route for 2018 is also a qualification competition for a place in the final organized with Christian Cévaër on November 3 and 4 at the Golf National and a place to attend the Ryder Cup which will take place from September 27 to 30 is offered by Open Golf Club at each prize giving ceremony!
