Latest report about the courses status

After five days from the floods of the past December 4th, even the is true that this following five days without rain have given us a rest, and  improved the appearance of the courses, thanks specially  for the works carried out by our Maintenance staff whom have worked under very difficult conditions, even during the holidays of December 6th and 8th

Reality is that this is an optical effect, fairways , aprons and tees are still very muddy, and  the water level still  is a very shallow

Allowing players to play in these conditions would be very detrimental to the future of Guadalmina Golf Courses, especially in this part of the year.

The North Course will take longer to recuperate 18 playing holes, as we have to re built the bridges of the "El Chopo Stream" and it will take 10 working days as from Friday 9th , first day when the contractors had access with the required machinery and equipment.

 

By this the BOARD OF DIRECTORS  of our club has  adopted the following decision,  to keep the courses closed until next Monday December 12th obviously following the recommendation of our  head Greenkeeper


Next Monday unless unforeseen weather circumstances , We expect to open the SOUTH course, as well as the front nine holes of the NORTH course and Pitch & Putt Course.

 

Official competitions for the week commencing next Monday 12th, as such Ladies Day , Men Day , Thursday International and Texas Scramble will be played on the North Course under 9 holes format.


We hope that Members will understand the reasons behind this decision, which we deeply regret, but they are “force mayor “

WHAT A TOURNAMENT!!!

What say about the Open that we have lived, for the Real Club de Golf Guadalmina has been our OPEN, Azahara Munoz Guijarro,  our "girl" has made history, close to home, for those who have not yet noticed, SHE has won the Ladie's Spanish OPEN in Spain!.!


The Chronicle of this tournament will be written by people far more expert than the one who writes these simple words, but I am sure that they will not be more full of emotion.

But we have also seen as other two players so linked to our Club as Noemí Jiménez and Laura Cabanillas  they have also have shone on the Aloha golf course,  WHAT A COURSE!!
