Seve Ballesteros Foundation Tournament

Probably due to the fact that the Tournament was scheduled at the same time in more than 150 Clubs all over Sapin, that we did not manage to get an entrance according to the tradition of R.C.G. Guadlamina when is about a Charity Tournament.

Nevertheless it was a great golfing day, and a tribute to one of the most incredible golfers ever, also a contribution to a noble cause.

Congratulations to the winners, and let´s hope they get lucky and win the raffle to visit Seve and play golf in Pedreña.

Ángel Ibáñez Master Senior winner at Guadalmina

Ángel Ibañez won the Master Senior at Guaalmina,a two days event at the South Course with 166 shots for a 146 net score, four strokes ahead of the runner-up Leonardo Pardo.

The rain previous to the competition suggested the possibility of suspending the first day, but thank to the ground staff the Competition Committee decided to go ahead, the course was in very difficoult conditions but all players congratulated R.C.G. Guadalmina for its effort.

Ángel has taken a good step forward to qualify for the National Team, representing Spain in the European Master Senior  Champioship

A good result in Madrid will give Ángel suficient points.

Congratulation
