La Reserva Club in Sotogrande has begun the 100-day countdown to welcoming the Ladies European Tour (LET) for the return of the innovative Aramco Team Series – Sotogrande, on 18-20 August.
Tickets are now on sale for fans to see a number of golf’s leading stars who will compete at the world-class Andalucían resort set in the foothills of the Sierra Almenara, including Spaniard Carlota Ciganda. The 31-year-old returns with a recent taste of victory on the southern Spanish coast after winning the 2021 Andalucía Open de España.
Overlooking the glittering Mediterranean coastline, the 2021 event was especially memorable for Alison Lee, from the US, who claimed her first professional victory in the individual element of the tournament and will return in 2022. “I have proven I can play well at La Reserva Club,” she says, “and I am determined to do so again. Last year there were very few fans on site due to COVID restrictions, but I hope that, having won there, some of the locals will come out in support of me in August.”
Combining a fourball and individual prize, the event’s unique team format sees professionals drafted into teams of three, combining with an amateur. With a $1 million prize purse up for grabs, the pressure is on all members of the team, as the winning amateur at the 2021 Aramco Team Series – Sotogrande, Ignacio Morillo from Spain, testified. “I cannot describe how hard it is to play for money that is not for you. It is not a normal situation for an amateur.”
Also teeing up in the Aramco Team Series – Sotogrande 2022 are 2021 AIG Women’s Open champion Anna Nordqvist, young Australian sensation Stephanie Kyriacou, and British golf legends Dame Laura Davies and Catriona Matthews.
According to Oscar Checa, La Reserva Club’s director of golf, “We are particularly excited to welcome golf fans to the course for the Aramco Team Series – Sotogrande. From our modern real estate, to our pristine, private, in-land beach, and of course our championship golf course, we can assure all guests – whether a resident or visitor – of an unforgettable visit to La Reserva Club.”
