We are pleased to announce that, next September 18 - 24,  Real Club de Golf Guadalmina will host the next Andalusian Costa del Sol Ladies Open, a Ladies European Tour venue. The tournament will feature as main sponsors, Tourism of Andalusia, Costa del Sol Tourism and Mancomunidad de Municipios of the Western Costa del Sol.

Last Friday we were in the official presentation of the tournament in Malaga representing our Club , Mr. Juan Ramon Martínez Landazábal (President), Mr. Pablo Mansilla, President of the RFGA, Mr. Jaime Salaverri, first vice-president of the RFEG, Francisco Javier Fernández, Councilor for Tourism and Sports of the Junta de Andalucía, who also was delighted because the tournament represents "an opportunity to continue linking the Andalusia brand with sport, Competition and international leadership in a segment that rivals all destinations”.

Neither they wanted to miss the presentation, Mr Elias Bendodo (President of Costa del Sol Tourism) and Margarita Cid (Mancomunidad de Municipios of the Western Costa del Sol), who expressed their enthusiasm for the celebration of the tournament on the Costa del Sol since "contributes to increase in Golf within the female segment of the population and a further more collaborates in our future work for a better management of the seasonality in our destination."

Salaverri and Mansilla highlighted the sponsorship of the three Andalusian institutions and thanked their collaboration and commitment for an event that will undoubtedly be one of the best of the year in the Ladies European Tour.

Finally, our president, Mr. Juan Ramón Martínez, stated that "on behalf of the members of our club I want to transmit all the illusion with which we receive this designation. This Spanish Open will be a great opportunity to demonstrate the ability of our maintenance team and every member of our organization, delighted to collaborate in the good development of the tournament.

If last year, our neighbors from Aloha Golf Club, were in charge of hosting the Spanish Ladies Open, this year, after long negotiations, we accepted the responsability of organizing such a special tournament.

It confirms the interest of the Ladies European Tour and the European Tour for Andalusia, because with this, will be the third tournament to be held this year in the Community, after the already announced Valderrama Masters (European Tour) and Andalusia Costa del Sol Match Play (Challenge Tour) held in La Cala.

The fact that our member of honor Azahara Muñoz tries to revalidate, the title achieved last year and in the club that saw her grow, makes the tournament even more special.
 

The one that has also confirmed its presence is the Navarrese and friend of Azahara, Carlota Ciganda, another of the stars of European golf. And of course, another member of Guadalmina Golf Club, Noemí Jiménez.
 

From the club we will do everything possible to present the course in the conditions that an event of this importance deserves.
 

We cannot say goodbye without thanking all our members the warm welcome this news has received.

The Mayor of Marbella, José Bernal, who made a special mention to "Pablo Ráez" and "Diego Sánchez 'Terremoto" , congratulated the winners on his speech and stressed that "they are an example for all of work and sacrifice."

In reference to the winners, he said that "you are an example and a reference for all of us, especially for our youngsters, whom I encourage to look at your successes, but also in your effort and work."

The Major has also highlighted the role of athletes in general of the municipality and has pointed out "the commitment of the City by sport."

Our School of Golf was also selected as a candidate for its work in the development of the children, and although this time we were not awarded the prize, the joy with which the young players of our school enjoy the sport is enough prize for us

Great performance of Laura Gomez in the best tournament of the year

Laura Gómez continues to carry with great success the name of Guadalmina wherever she goes. It was in Williamsburg, Virginia, at the CAA Women's Championship, where Laura was climbing positions day after day to sign 72 shots (E) in the last round to end in a meritorious 4th place.

Since 2014 a player from "The Dukes" (James Madison University) did not get a 4th place. Moreover, the good performance of Laura led to a notorious 4th place for The Dukes in the team classification.

Congrats, Laura!

Campeonato de la Comunidad Valenciana Masculino 2017

A special triumph for Noemí Jiménez at The Gecko

The puppies of Guadalmina doesn’t stop. This time was Noemí Jiménez' s turn at Atalaya Golf & Country Club (Old), designed by the german Bernhard von Limburger. Tremendous denouement of the 11th tournament of the refference winter circuit season of the old continent, The Gecko Tour.

It seemed that the 67 (-4) of Noemi at the second round wouldn’t be enough to take the victory until Conner's  stumble (bogeys 17 and 18 holes) and Galiano`s  (bogey 18 hole) arrived in the final stretch of the course.

The party began (at least for the spectator). Conner, Galiano, Jones and our loved Noemi were tied with -6 at the end of the two rounds so it was necessary to go out for a playoff.

The player of Guadalmina and Sam Connor continued ahead after a birdie in the first hole of the play off.

And another birdie for Jimenez to take the title. The joy was twofold, Noemi becames the first Lady to win a Gecko tournament in the six years of life of the circuit, where most competitotr as we know are gentlemen. Historical win.

We can´t think a better way to start the year, Noemi. Lots of luck in your 2nd season on the Ladies European Tour. Come on!

Congratulations, champion!
