The ONE YEAR TO GO week has been very special with:

Tuesday 22nd the Organisers and 40 ambassador had a lunch with the Captain Suzann in San Pedro – this was a great success and an opportunity to show Suzann how enthuastic all her ambassadors are about the event

 

Thursday 24th with exactly 365 days to go to know the winning team of the 2023 Solheim Cup, which we all hope will be the team led by Suzann Pettersen, the Real Club de Golf Guadalmina gathered its members to participate in the OYTG Putting Green Tournament.

 

More than thirty couples registered, in the modality of two ball best “putting” ball and enjoyed an extraordinary day of joy and fun.

 

At the end of the competition, they could taste Spanish paella, prepared by the catering team of the Real Club de Golf Guadalmina and a "typical Spanish sangria", which delighted all participants … of course the sudden death playoff needed a little more time.

 

Our Solheim Cup Ambassador Rosaleen Cunningham, together with Lorena Ricondo, arranged an incomparable event, which will be remembered as one of the most entertaining days of the Club, well supported by both the Ladies and Gentlmen Section.

 

We were delighted to have Kaisa Hayrynen our member and the Ambassador for Aloha Golf Club and Christine Perring our member and Ambassador for El Paraiso Golf Club join in the fun.

 

We must thank the Caddy Master team, led by José Hernandez Reina, for all the work they did in the preparation, down to the smallest detail.

 

Winners of the event were the couple formed by Carmen Ortega Corbacho and Luis García Bermejo with 27 points, followed closely by Ninna Lindquist and May – Britt Ryber with 24 points, in third position Anna Thijs-Leenards and her husband Johannes with 22, tying for 4th and 5th place Loulou Krulder Timotheus Timmerman Billy Hoglund and Anders Lindqüist with 21 points.

 

The rest up to the 11th and 12th positions were resolved by sudden death, the classification and photos can be seen in Clapphouse.

 

Among the prizes awarded were two tickets for Saturday and Sunday during the Solheim at Finca Cortesin, and the raffle of commemorative gifts of the event donated by our Ambassador Rosaleen
