The circuit organised by the PGA of Spain will feature ten events across the Iberian Peninsula in 2026 and will award the winner of the Order of Merit seven invitations to compete in tournaments on the Challenge Tour of the DP World Tour, Europe’s leading development circuit.

Presentation of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour and its growth

The official presentation took place at Spain’s High Council for Sports (CSD) in Madrid, where the upcoming creation of a new Global Alliance of PGAs was also announced. The organisation will bring together 43 national associations and is set to be formally established in England next July. Spain is expected to play a prominent role within this international structure, further strengthening the positioning of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour as a key platform for professional development.

The circuit continues to grow steadily and has established itself as a national competition that allows emerging talents to compete at the highest level, while also providing opportunities for experienced professionals who remain active on circuits such as the Alps Tour, Challenge Tour and Legends Tour.

Order of Merit of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour gains a historic name

III TUMI Spain Golf Tour 2026: Seven invitations to the Challenge Tour

One of the major highlights of this edition will be the Order of Merit, which from this year onwards will bear the name of José María Olazábal in tribute to one of the most influential figures in Spanish golf. Thanks to the agreement reached with the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, the final ranking leader will receive seven invitations to compete in events on the Challenge Tour of the DP World Tour, reinforcing the circuit’s role as both a competitive and developmental pathway.

Sponsors of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour

Corporate support will once again be essential this season. For the third consecutive year, international brand TUMI, renowned for its high-performance travel luggage and accessories, will serve as title sponsor of the circuit. In addition, Titleist and FootJoy will provide the Order of Merit winner with full competitive equipment, contributing to players’ preparation at the highest level.

Competitive calendar of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour

The 2026 calendar will consist of ten tournaments staged across several Spanish regions including the Basque Country, Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha, Murcia, Madrid and Andalusia, as well as one event in Portugal. This geographical spread reinforces the circuit’s national scope and its ability to attract players with diverse competitive profiles.

Another new feature will be the integration of the Nin9rs Games, a team competition inspired by innovative formats that debuted successfully last season. On that occasion, the title was claimed by Atlas by Golf Lleida, made up of José Luis Adarraga, Alex Esmatges, Emilio Cuartero, Gerard Piris and Carlos Pigem.

International projection of the III TUMI Spain Golf Tour

During the Congress of PGAs of Europe held in Turkey last year, the Spanish circuit received very positive feedback from international officials. The future Global Alliance of PGAs will help strengthen cooperation between associations and improve competitive opportunities for professionals.

Speaking at the presentation were Ander Martínez, President of the PGA of Spain, who highlighted the circuit’s growth and the importance of the agreement reached with the federation; Juan Guerrero, President of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, who described the initiative as a historic milestone for national professional golf; and Fernando Molinero, Director General of Sports at Spain’s High Council for Sports, who underlined the importance of this type of competition in facilitating the transition from amateur to professional golf.

The III TUMI Spain Golf Tour therefore continues to consolidate its prestige within both the national and European calendar, offering visibility, competitiveness and genuine progression opportunities for professional golfers.

golf-on-the-costa-del-sol-opens-the-world-senior-season-with-the-staysure-marbella-legends

The event opens the international calendar of the Legends Tour at Aloha Golf Club and brings together six historic figures of Spanish golf.

The Costa del Sol once again takes its place at the heart of the international sporting calendar with the staging of the Staysure Marbella Legends, the tournament that opens the global senior tour season and will be played at the prestigious Aloha Golf Club.

Turismo Costa del Sol took part in the official presentation of the tournament, a high-profile international event that reinforces the destination’s commitment to golf as a strategic product for seasonality management and the attraction of high-value tourism.

 

Opening of the Global Senior Tour Season

The staging of the Staysure Marbella Legends represents a strategic opportunity for Spanish golf to begin the year with a top-level competition in a setting renowned for excellence among players and fans alike.

The tournament will feature a strong Spanish representation, including: José María Olazábal, Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Juan Quirós, Santiago Luna, Miguel Ángel Martín, and Carlos Suneson. Six prominent figures who combine experience, legacy, and a decisive contribution to the history of Spanish golf.

Golf as a Strategic Pillar of the Destination

During the presentation event, Miguel Ángel Guerrero, Business Development Director for Golf at Turismo Costa del Sol, expressed his gratitude for being invited to what he described as “an unforgettable experience for players, organizers, and fans.”

Guerrero highlighted the importance of a tournament that not only opens the global senior season but also projects the destination’s image internationally.

“For the Costa del Sol, it is a true honor to take part in projects like this, which strengthen our positioning as a leading international tourism destination, also within the golf segment,” he stated.

In this regard, he emphasized that golf is one of the fundamental pillars of the province’s tourism model.

Institutional Collaboration and Organizational Capacity

The Business Development Director for Golf highlighted the joint efforts between public institutions, organizations, and the private sector — a shared commitment that ensures the Costa del Sol is fully prepared to host top-tier sporting events.

This collaboration demonstrates the destination’s organizational capability and extensive experience in staging international competitions.

The “Costa del Golf”

The Costa del Sol boasts more than 70 golf courses, making it the continental European destination with the highest concentration of facilities — a distinction that has earned it international recognition as the “Costa del Golf.”

This strength is complemented by a privileged natural setting, first-class infrastructure, excellent connectivity, high-quality hotel accommodations, and a wide range of complementary leisure offerings that enrich the visitor experience.

Turismo Costa del Sol continues to strongly support golf as a strategic product, particularly due to its ability to contribute to tourism seasonality management, as its peak season does not coincide with that of general tourism.

Moreover, golf attracts a high-spending visitor profile that generates revenue and stimulates other sectors of the local economy.

An Event That Reinforces International Leadership

The staging of the Staysure Marbella Legends represents an exceptional opportunity to showcase the quality of the Costa del Sol’s facilities — maintained in outstanding condition throughout the year — and to further consolidate its widely recognized leadership.

Finally, Miguel Ángel Guerrero reiterated his gratitude to the organizers, sponsors, clubs, professionals, and players who are central to this international event.

“For the province of Málaga, it is a true source of pride that the quality of our infrastructure, the professionalism of our clubs, and our natural environment are decisive factors in hosting tournaments of this magnitude,” he concluded.
