Santo da Serra will host the 8th Madeira Golf Trophy

Clube de Golf Santo da Serra, who is hosting the eighth annual Madeira Golf Trophy on June 10th, has announced a new record number of registrations for the tournament.

The organization estimates “the presence of around 300 people”, which, it adds, “will lead for the first time to the use of the 27 holes of the Santo da Serra golf course, simultaneously, to guarantee the dignified and high participation of all players, regional, national and international”.

“There are many influential individuals from the political and commercial worlds who go to Madeira just for the tournament, and this has a positive effect on the island’s profile”, as noted by the same source.

“All of this is possible thanks to the commitment of the Regional Government, the personal commitment of the management of the Santo da Serra Golf Club and all of its staff, and Gilda Paredes Alves, a media person that has collaborated with the organisation since 2008”, says the same source.

Santo da Serra board believes that 2023 will be a year with excellent prospects for growth, thanks to the excellent quality of the course, which continues to prove that golf is vital for the regional economy.

The golf club remembers that it was “the first in this idyllic destination to apply a totally eco-friendly system, by carrying out a series of upgrades on the course in order to make the golf experience even more memorable and distinctive for all its members and guests”.

The Madeira Golf Trophy is modelled after the Funchal City Tournament, which was first organised in 2008 to celebrate Funchal’s 500th anniversary, an initiative of Miguel Albuquerque, former Mayor of Funchal and current Regional President of Madeira.

Solheim Cup will celebrate Andalusia with special outfits

PING, Solheim Cup 2023 Founding Partner, will uniform staff and volunteers at Finca Cortesín, in Costa del Sol, from September 18 to 24.

To celebrate Andalusia, the region hosting this year’s Solheim Cup, more than a thousand people will wear an unique outfit designed by PING just for that week. This shows that the organisation is not affiliated with either of the conventional team colours (blue and red), demonstrating its commitment to being neutral and inclusive of supporters of all stripes.

As a complement to this wardrobe, the more than a hundred Solheim Cup 2023 ambassadors will also wear their own PING uniform created specifically for the occasion.

PING garments stand out for their advanced technology, since they use the most modern, comfortable and sustainable materials of the moment and usually demanded by golfers.

“We are honoured to be selected as the tournament’s official clothing supplier for both the staff and volunteers. Without the help of these individuals, who work diligently to make this tournament a success, it would not have been nearly as successful”, said Lisa Lovatt, general manager of PING Europe.

“Without a doubt, the uniform is a fundamental element for both those who form part of the staff how the volunteers have that feeling of belonging to a team”, said Alicia Garrido, president of Deporte & Business.

“The agreement achieved with PING is important and not just because of the quality of the garments or because of what this brand represents for the Solheim Cup”, Garrido concluded.

Portugal Golf Holidays – Algarve had the best February since 2007

Posted on by

Portimão, Algarve. Algarve had the best February since 2007

Portimão had the biggest growth in the Algarve

The Association of Hotels and Tourism Enterprises of the Algarve (AHETA), with headquarters in Albufeira, reports that the February 2023 occupancy rate for tourist accommodation units in the Algarve was 48.7%, the highest February occupancy rate in the past 16 years.

According to the data released, the occupancy rate for February was 5.4% higher than the same month in 2019 and 2.1% higher than the same month in 2020, the last month before the Covid-19 restrictions.

According to AHETA, the markets that most contributed to the growth witnessed were the national market with +1.4pp, the Dutch market with +0,9pp, and the British market with +0.5pp in comparison to February 2020.

As said by AHETA, the highest gains compared to 2020 were seen in the regions of Portimão (+16.5pp), Monte Gordo (+11.1pp), and Tavira (+7.2pp) in February.

The signs are clear: the Algarve tourism sector is bouncing back from the economic crisis brought by the Covid-19 pandemic. After a tough period of two years, the Algarve is recovering well, with a good start in 2023, but there is a long way to go in order to make a full recovery.

The Algarve has some of the best golf courses in Europe, like Monte Rei (considered the best in Portugal), Palmares, and Dom Pedro Old, all of them well ranked in Europe’s top 100 golf courses.
