As usual in the Tour, the places available to play the tournament were sold out several days in advance.  <\/p>\n<p>The course designed by the legendary <strong>Robert Trent Jones<\/strong> looked spectacular, as always, with perfect fairways and greens. Competing in such an iconic setting, the scene of memorable <strong>Ryder Cup<\/strong> duels <strong>, American Express World Championships, Volvo Masters, Open de Espa\u00f1a and Andaluc\u00eda Masters<\/strong>, is a luxury that leaves no golfer indifferent. <\/p>\n<p>The Open Amateur Circuit organized by the magazine Andaluc\u00eda Golf\/Espa\u00f1a Golf celebrates its tenth edition this year, and again, as in the previous two editions, with a grand final prize of five trips to the Caribbean by <strong>Grupo Pi\u00f1ero<\/strong>. Apart from the prizes of each tournament (premium branded clothing from the fairway+blue store in Puerto Ban\u00fas, D.O. Somontano wines, Holiday Golf sports equipment, etc.), the first three classified in each category plus the scratch winner get a place to play the grand final of the Circuit (Atalaya Old, November 21) and thus opt for one of the prizes.   <strong>five one-week trips to the Dominican Republic, including flights, transfers, five-star all-inclusive hotel and golf in the Dominican Republic.<\/strong><span><strong>  three of the best courses in the Caribbean: Ocean&#8217;s 4, Teeth of The Dog and Punta Espada.<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><span>In the first category, the first three classified were <strong>Juan Castro Rodr\u00edguez <\/strong>(37 points),<strong> Santiago R\u00edos Rubio <\/strong>(36)<strong> and Alejandro Mart\u00ednez Arasso<\/strong> (35). <strong>Helios Otero D\u00edaz <\/strong>and<strong> Francisco Javier Garc\u00eda Mar\u00edn<\/strong> qualified for the grand final together with Juan Castro, since Santiago R\u00edos had qualified for the final in a previous tournament of the Circuit and Alejandro Mart\u00ednez was scratch winner in Valderrama, so he obtained in this way a place for the grand final. It is worth mentioning the performance of Nicol\u00e1s Alexander Otero da Gama, a minor (not entitled to a prize) who finished fourth. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The first three classified in second category were, in this order, the following: <strong>Sebastian Vidal Lopez-Burgos <\/strong>(41 points),<strong> Flavio Cassina <\/strong>(39) and<strong> Victor Ceballos Niebla <\/strong>(38).
