Jan Tops

FOUNDER & PRESIDENT LONGINES GLOBAL CHAMPIONS TOUR AND GCL

I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to the eagerly-awaited fifth round of the 2023 season, taking place in the breathtaking and charming destination of Ramatuelle, Saint-Tropez.

The backdrop of crystal-clear turquoise waters and the French Riviera’s elegant charm are a highlight year after year. The arena is only a stone’s throw from the magnificent Pampelonne beach, adding an additional layer of glamour to the already exciting atmosphere.

The individual championship race in the Longines Global Champions Tour, plus the teams challenge in the GCL are truly heating up, and amongst all others, I look forward to a weekend of top sport and exceptional hospitality.

I would like to express my gratitude to our Title Partner and Official Timekeeper, Longines, for their support over the years. I would also like to thank all of our partners, including those here in Ramatuelle, SaintTropez, for their valuable contributions in making this event possible.

Finally, to our fans and viewers around the world, I extend my warmest thanks for your continued support, both in person and through GCTV live streaming, where our expert commentators will provide you with insightful analysis and entertainment.

I am thrilled to host you all in this exceptional location and wish you a truly magnificent and unforgettable event.
