The full fixture of the Tortugas Country Club Open, opening tournament of the Argentine Triple Crown, has been announced. The competition will kick off on Tuesday, October 8, and will come to an end on Saturday, October 19.
It’s worth remembering that this year’s edition was meant to be played between four teams, but it was agreed that the top 8 teams of the 2018 ranking will compete. The format will thus be the same as last year’s, including 8 teams and knockout stages.
Ten matches will be played, including the main final (Emilio de Anchorena Cup) and the subsidiary. La Dolfina will be playing for its seventh consecutive Tortugas title.
