Precision and Perfection: Schüco Open 2011 With Martin Kaymer and Fellow Schüco Brand Ambassadors

The Third Schüco Open, the Most Star-studded Invitational Tournament in Germany, Takes Place on 31 July at the Hubbelrath Golf Club Outside Duesseldorf

BIELEFELD, Germany, March 25, 2011 - German sports fans can look forward to another extra special
golf event this summer. Now firmly established, the Schüco Open will play
host on 31 July 2011 to some of the world's top golfers and Schüco brand
ambassadors, led by the new world number one, Martin Kaymer. The third annual
staging of this prestigious invitational tournament will be at the Hubbelrath
Golf Club. Situated just outside Duesseldorf, this club was chosen because,
like Schüco, it promotes conservation and environmental protection - having
been awarded the highest environmental certificate from the German Golf
Association. The celebrated club has also hosted the German Open on several
occasions.

Martin Kaymer will be joined in the field by his fellow
professionals and Schüco brand ambassadors: Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Grégory
Havret, Geoff Ogilvy, Henrik Stenson, Edoardo Molinari and Liang Wenchong.
They will be competing with some 100 professionals and amateurs on the Sunday
on the challenging championship course at the Hubbelrath Golf Club for the
Schüco Open 2011 title. The inaugural Schüco Open in 2009 in Bielefeld was
won by the Spaniard Miguel Ángel Jiménez. Last year, in front of more than
7000 excited spectators in Halle, Ryder Cup captain Colin Montgomerie lifted
the coveted glass Winners' Cup.

Today Schüco is renowned throughout the world for its
expertise in solar solutions, windows, doors and façades, as well as taking
responsibility for the conservation of natural resources. With green
technology for the blue planet. That means clean energy from solar products
and windows. Professional golf and innovative Schüco products both symbolise
technology in harmony with nature and the environment. Hence our commitment
to international golf - a key part of which, alongside the star-studded
Schüco Open, is our partnership with some of the world finest golfers as
brand ambassadors. The decision to combine golf with the Schüco brand and the
commitment made has not gone unrecognised. Schüco was recently awarded the
German golf prize for "Sponsorship" at the Rheingolf Awards in Cologne.
