The course was presented in excellent condition following a renovation of the irrigation system on the back nine and the construction of new buggy paths. This refurbishment will be completed shortly on the front nine, which will result in substantial overall improvements to the course. Tournament participants enjoyed the premiere of a new fleet of perfectly equipped buggies. The tournament itself took place in splendid sunshine, with magnificent temperatures and a slight wind.
The players enjoyed San Miguel beers and Solán de Cabras water, both during the prize-giving lunch and out on the course, on the 3rd, 8th and 12th holes.
The prize-giving ceremony was attended by Ramón Pons, general manager of Gran Hotel Guadalpín Banús, one of the Circuit’s sponsors.
