The splendid Fairplay Golf & Spa Resort has been the scene for the first time of one of the Andalucía Golf tournaments, organized by the magazine of the same name. This large complex located in the Cadiz municipality of Benalup, in the beautiful region of La Janda, where the so-called Ruta del Toro runs, hosted the participants in the tournament over the weekend, who in addition to the golf course were able to enjoy the five-star hotel and the spa of more than 2,000 square meters of the resort.
The course, recently renovated, par 73, has an incomparable natural beauty. Its 18 holes are surrounded by impressive Mediterranean vegetation composed mainly of wild olive trees, cork oaks, pines and mastic trees. Its gentle orography is very pleasant for the practice of golf.
Located a short distance from the village of Benalup and near the beautiful town of Vejer de la Frontera, the golf course has spectacular views of the well-known area of the Janda lagoons and the Alcornocales Natural Park, which includes one of the most attractive forests in Europe.
A splendid sun and a very pleasant temperature accompanied the players throughout the tournament, which ended with the victory of Danielle Sostoen in first category, with 38 points, and Álvaro Clemares in second, with 37. In their respective categories, Francisco Funes and Elio Chianese were second, and the third places went to José Javier Castillo and Dmitry Mushta. There were prizes for the first three in each category, as well as for the scratch winner, Rachid Alaoui, closest ball to the flag, Fernando Costilla, and longest drives, Amelia do Nascimento and Elio Chianese.
Those who did not know the course, who were the majority of the participants in the tournament, were very positively surprised by the course and highlighted the quality of the course and the excellent presentation of the course.
The five-star hotel was also widely praised, as was the service and attention provided.
It was a full weekend that in the end was too short, so many plan to return.
