The men will play 108 holes, walk over 35 miles, and travel more than 350 miles around the country - hoping to raise over £100,000.

Starting at 4.15am they will play Princes, Royal St George's and Royal Cinque Ports before being flown by helicopter to Royal Liverpool to start the afternoon. The final two courses they will play are Royal Birkdale and Royal Lytham & St Annes at 7.45pm.
