AUTOMATED ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGY AT THE HEART OF THE BELFRY PREPARATIONS FOR 2026 HUSQVARNA BRITISH MASTERS
SEVEN HUSQVARNA CEORA ® ROBOTIC MOWERS ARE HELPING PREPARE THE BRABAZON AHEAD OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP, BEFORE AN EXPANDED FLEET OF 15 CEORA UNITS PROVIDE OVERNIGHT SUPPORT DURING TOURNAMENT WEEK.
Husqvarna technology is playing a crucial role in preparing The Belfry’ s iconic Brabazon Course for the 2026 Husqvarna British Masters hosted by Sir Nick Faldo, as the venue builds towards the arrival of the DP World Tour’ s leading players from 26 – 30 August.
In the build-up to the championship, seven Husqvarna CEORA robotic mowers are maintaining the fairways of the four-time Ryder Cup venue, working consistently across the course to help produce the exacting standards required for elite tournament golf.
During the tournament week, Husqvarna will expand its operation considerably. A fleet of 15 CEORA robotic mowers will cut the championship fairways overnight, supported by a dedicated Husqvarna team working from 8pm until 6am. The team will transport the mowers to their designated fairways, oversee the overnight operation and collect the machines at the end of each shift.
Husqvarna CEORA, Automower ® 580L and RELOX technology will also be deployed on the driving range, while a Husqvarna 535 AWD
EPOS is maintaining the short game area to ensure the rough is always at optimal height for practice. Every machine used during the championship will be cleaned and calibrated daily, with blades changed each day to maintain consistent cutting performance throughout the event.
