Golfers embark on 300-mile charity walk The fundraisers aim to walk between 40 and 45 miles per day, while stopping at some of Britain's most famous golfing venues. They will tee off at each in honour of the great Spanish golfer, who died in May last year after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. Their route will take them to Wentworth later today, before they head through Henley-on-Thames, Oxford and Rugby. On Friday they will visit the Belfry, venue for the 1985, 1989 and 1993 Ryder Cups, each of which featured Ballesteros. They will also pass through Manchester and Liverpool before arriving at Royal Lytham and St Anne's Golf Club, near Blackpool, next Monday evening, ahead of the 141st Open Championship, which begins on July 19. Ballesteros won two of his three Open titles at the course. The charity walk will be led by Andrew Harding and Ross Marshall, co-founders of YourGolfTravel.com, who hope to raise thousands of pounds. The also want to raise awareness of Seve Day (www.seveday.com), a fundraising competition for amateur golfers around Europe. "Seve played some of his most amazing shots at Royal Lytham," said Mr Marshall. He will always be regarded as one of the greats of the game and we wanted to do something to commemorate his achievements with The Open being played there this month. "Many people and their families, including myself, have been affected by cancer and we hope that we can help make a difference and aid research by raising as much money as possible.""
