.<\/span><\/p>\n The Spanish, ready to conquer Sotogrande<\/strong><\/p>\n The best Spanish golfers have already confirmed their participation in the Aramco Team Series: Maria Hernandez, in the top 30 in the ranking of the Ladies European Tour – Race to Costa del Sol; and the three-time champion of LET tournaments, Nuria Iturrioz. They will be joined by rising stars Natasha Fear, Carmen Alonso and Noem\u00ed Jim\u00e9nez Mart\u00edn, who will compete alongside the best players on the European circuit. <\/p>\n Mar\u00eda Hern\u00e1ndez highlighted that “It is incredibly exciting to see how the new global format of the Aramco Team Series comes to our country. It is a great opportunity to show the world the best Spanish golf, so that the fans also attend and that Spanish players can count on their support in the Ladies European Tour. This is a great opportunity so that more women are encouraged to play golf and to practice sport in general, both in Spain and in the World”.<\/p>\n .<\/span><\/p>\n An innovative competition<\/strong><\/p>\n The unique format of the Aramco Team Series offers amateurs the chance to play on the professional tours alongside some of the biggest names in women’s golf.<\/p>\n All competing teams will have three LET players paired through a unique draft system, in which the captains choose one player and are assigned another. The fourth member of each team is an amateur golfer, a position open to any golfer from Spain through the tournament’s Team Up competition. <\/p>\n This means that it could be up to an amateur golfer to sink a winning putt in the LET tournament, thus securing prize money for the professional players, something unique in the world of golf.<\/p>\n Natasha Fear added: “Having the opportunity as an amateur player, regardless of your handicap, to join the pros at the event is a unique and great opportunity. Team Up offers amateur golfers a special opportunity to experience life on tour over three days of competition; improve their game at the hands of the best; and have fun along the way.”<\/p>\n This tournament is the second of five Aramco-sponsored events scheduled in 2021, which kicked off with Team Olivia Cowan’s victory in the Aramco Team Series – London tournament held at the Centurion Club last weekend. The tournament will adhere to COVID-19 protocols, as well as local and government guidelines.
