The inaugural tournament was played from 14 to 17 August 2014 at the HimmerLand Golf & Spa Resort, in Farsø,[1] Denmark.[2] HimmerLand hosted the event from 2014 to 2017. In 2015, the tournament featured the shortest par-3 hole in European Tour history, when the 16th hole played just 79 yards (72 m) in the final round.[3]
In 2018, the Made in Denmark tournament was played at Silkeborg Ry Golfklub, before returning to HimmerLand Golf & Spa Resort in 2019. During the Made in Denmark Challenge in June 2018, the organisation behind the tournament announced that Made in Denmark would continue for another five years, until 2023.[4]
Following the confirmation that HimmerLand Golf & Spa Resort would cease hosting from 2024 onwards,[5] it was announced that Lübker Golf Resort would host the 2024 event, being renamed as the Danish Golf Championship.[6]
