Rafa Cabrera Bello, three-time winner on the European Tour, will return next month to Real Club Valderrama to play the Estrella Damm N.A. Andalucía Masters from October 14 to 17.
The 37-year-old golfer last participated in the tournament in 2011 and will play his first competitive round at Real Club Valderrama in five years, since his appearance at the 2016 Open de España.
The 2016 Ryder Cup European team member will join world number one Jon Rahm in the tournament line-up as the tour returns to one of continental Europe’s finest golf courses for the seventh edition of the Estrella Damm N.A. Andalucía Masters.
In 2020, Cabrera Bello was one of 38 European Tour stars who participated in the BMW Indoor Invitational powered by Trackman in a virtual tournament at Real Club Valderrama. The Spaniard finished tied for first place with a round of 70 (-1) and donated his share of the $10,000 prize money to charity.
“I’m really looking forward to returning to Valderrama,” said Cabrera Bello. “It’s a very special golf course and a fantastic challenge that has offered unforgettable moments over the years. Playing the virtual version has nothing to do with it and I’m looking forward to facing the real course.”
“We Spaniards always enjoy having the opportunity to play in front of our home crowd. I’m sure we’ll have another great week at home,” said the Gran Canarian, who also hosted the Gran Canaria Lopesan Open in April.
The Estrella Damm N. A. Andalucía Masters will be the fifth of six tournaments to be played on Spanish soil as part of the Race to Dubai 2021, sandwiched between the ACCIONA Open de España and the Mallorca Golf Open.
