Finca Cortesín opens in style the XV San Miguel Andalucía Golf Challenge by Globalia

The San Miguel Andalucía Golf Challenge Costa del Sol Destino Dominican Republic by Globalia is off to a strong start in its fifteenth edition. The circuit, organized by the magazine Andalucía Golf / España Golf, had a spectacular start at Finca Cortesín, venue of the Solheim Cup 2023, where the best European golfers beat the Americans in a historic duel.

A first-rate course and impeccable organization

Finca Cortesín is not only recognized for its sporting track record, but also for its leadership in sustainability, using regenerated water for 100% of its irrigation. In addition, its luxury hotel has won international awards. The demand to participate in the tournament was so high that registrations were sold out two weeks in advance.

A tournament with great experiences

The players enjoyed an exceptional round, accompanied by a high-class cocktail, courtesy of San Miguel and Solán de Cabras. The experience started from the parking lot, where the club staff picked up the clubs and prepared them in the customized buggies.

The tournament began at 9:30 a.m. with a shotgun start, after the delivery of the welcome packs that included personalized gloves with a circuit marker. Players participated in the prize draw, including a golf trip to the Dominican Republic, courtesy of Air Europa.
