The Andalucía Golf Tournament held yesterday at Atalaya Old Course was characterized by good weather, the extraordinary quality of the course and a great participation -so much so that a waiting list had to be set up a week in advance due to the high demand for registration applications. More than a hundred Spanish and foreign players enjoyed a splendid sporting day at the prestigious course designed by Bernhard Von Limburger and inaugurated in 1967, followed by lunch at the facilities of the Costa del Sol club located in the municipality of Estepona.
The competition distributed numerous gifts sponsored by the Fairway and Blue store, Holiday Golf and Bodegas Álvaro Domecq, which gave all participants over 18 years of age a bottle of Hacienda Montecorto Verdejo wine from Rueda. The best classified also won prizes from the Tom Tom brand, specifically a GPG Tom Tom Golfer watch and a Tom Tom car navigator.
The amateurs who attended the tournament generally played at a good level and enjoyed both the course and the good weather. The tournament brought together a varied representation of nationalities, with a preponderance of Spaniards, who greatly enjoyed the sports day.
The awards ceremony, at the Atalaya clubhouse, where a magnificent lunch was served, was presided over by Andalucía Golf editor Antonio Sánchez.
