Finca Cortesin won Inspire Action Award

Women’s Golf Day (WGD) has just revealed the winners of the 2022 Inspire Action Awards and Finca Cortesin, the host of the 2023 Solheim Cup, is on the list. The winners are from the United States, Canada, and Spain, demonstrating WGD’s extensive global influence.

«Finca Cortesin is proud to have received the Inspire Action Award from Women’s Golf Day. Providing equal opportunities in the game of golf to women and girls has always been a key focus for the resort since its opening, and for me personally. As host of this year’s Solheim Cup, we are dedicated to creating a lasting legacy in the region», says Vicente Rubio, president of Finca Cortesin, a long-time supporter of Women’s Golf Day.

With our continuous commitments to the R&A’s Women in Golf Charter and our present sponsorship of three Spanish players on the Ladies European Tour, we hope to increase opportunities for women to participate in sports at all levels, both on and off the golf course, says Rubio.

The annual awards, which were unveiled during the PGA Merchandise Show, are presented to individuals and organisations who have made significant contributions to increasing the number of women and girls in golf.

“All of our winners share our commitment to expanding golf’s reach to more women and girls”, says Elisa Gaudet, founder of WGD.

Elisa Gaudet also revealed that WGD 2023 will last for a whole week, from May 30th to June 6th, giving venues unprecedented flexibility in planning events.

Finca Cortesin is a popular golf holiday destination in Costa del Sol due to its outstanding golf course and glamorous resort (Finca Cortesin Golf and Spa) and it’s used to host important golf tournaments.

Exclusive golf tournament took place at Quinta do Lago

Amazing golfing royalty from across the globe gathered last weekend at the Quinta do Lago, Algarve, for a three-day golf tournament. The One Green Way Invitational has quickly become the most prestigious private event in all of Europe, even in just its second year.

Picture this: the greatest players in the world competing in a private event on a flawless golf course surrounded by a surreal backdrop. Put away your daydreams; this isn’t a fairy tale; it’s the One Green Way Invitational, a mixed Pro-Am golf tournament held in Quinta do Lago North last weekend, which featured an impressive roster of golf celebrities. The total “prize money” was 332,500 Euros, with the grand prize at 55,000 Euros.

Multiple captains and vice-captains from the Ryder Cup and the Solheim Cup competed in this year’s edition. Several of the competitors have been inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame, while many more have won PGA or Open Championships. Bernhard Langer, José Maria Olazabal, and Colin Montgomerie are just some of the celebrities who participated in this tournament.

In the ladies, the highlight was the Mexican Laura Ochoa, who still holds the record for the most weeks in a row at the top of women’s golf, alongside other great presences such as Dame Laura Davies and Suzann Pettersen, a captain in the 2023 Solheim Cup.

Jean-Noel Bioul, the tournament’s host and an advisor to the One Green Way Board, stated in a statement before the event: “We are thrilled to organise the second ‘One Green Way Invitational’ this year. Everything about these three days of the tournament seems promising”. Sixty “legends” and sixty special guests will gather for the One Green Way Invitational.

Portugal Golf Holidays – Three Portuguese destinations among the best in Europe for spring breaks

Posted on by

Praia da Marinha. Three Portuguese regions regarded as ideal for spring breaks

Three Portuguese destinations for spring breaks

The famous magazine Lonely Planet has placed the Western Algarve, Madeira and Azores among the best for spring breaks in Europe. Consider these regions for your next golf holidays.

At the Western Algarve, part of the most famous Portuguese destination for golf holidays, Lonely Planet recommends the whitewashed little towns, the stunning beaches, the fabulous Cabo de São Vicente, and the natural park of Costa Vicentina on the west coast of the region. The Western Algarve has brilliant golf courses, some of the best in Europe, like Palmares in Portimão and Boavista in Lagos. Challenging but marvellous golf rounds are waiting for you in the Algarve.

Of the Azores, the magazine highlights the island of São Miguel, the biggest of the archipelago. Lonely Planet describes the Azores as stepping stones over the mid-Atlantic that resemble a lost planet with their jagged cliffs, waterfalls, and crystalline lakes. In São Miguel, it is suggested the geothermal marvels of Furnas, the Terra Nostra botanical gardens, and the Sete Cidades lagoon, known as the main natural attraction of the Azores. Despite the small size, the Azores have wonderful golf courses, with Batalha being often considered the best.

Lonely Planet calls Madeira the ‘island of the eternal spring’ and describes the island as a botanist’s fantasy. The magazine’s recommendations are a delicious wine tasting in Funchal, the wonderful Botanical Gardens of Madeira, the Cabo Girão and the traditional toboggan rides on Madeira’s steep streets. Madeira has dazzling golf courses like Santo da Serra that are ready to give you a great holiday experience.
