Already a favourite on the Ladies European Tour (LET), La Sella Golf joined the LET schedule in 2023 and quickly made headlines.

Carlos García, Director of La Sella Golf, highlighted the importance of this new alliance: “In a short space of time, La Sella Open has earned a place in the hearts of many of Europe’s best golfers, and this relationship with 54 will see us enhance our standing even further.”

Located just an hour from Alicante and nestled beside the Montgó Natural Park, La Sella Golf offers a 27-hole layout designed by José María Olazábal, a Spanish legend and two-time Masters champion and recently named Vice Captain for the European Ryder Cup Team. The three nine-hole loops—Llebeig, Gregal, and Mestral—offer a memorable mix of Mediterranean views and strategic challenges.

Copa Sotogrande 2025

Posted on by

The future of European golf was on full display this April as Real Club de Golf Sotogrande hosted Copa Sotogrande 2025, one of the continent’s most prestigious amateur tournaments. Known for combining high-level competition with one of Spain’s most iconic venues, the event continues to serve as a launchpad for the next generation of stars in men’s amateur golf.

With teams representing some of Europe’s strongest golf nations, among them England, Spain, France, Ireland, and Germany, the tournament stands as one of the most competitive and respected on the amateur calendar. Played over four days in a demanding format, it tests not only individual talent but also strategic teamwork and national depth.

Spain, once again in the spotlight as host, reinforced its role as a key player in Europe’s golfing future, offering a stage where up-and-coming talent can take meaningful strides on the path to professional golf.

A Tournament with Depth and Prestige

Organised annually by the Spanish Golf Federation, Copa Sotogrande 2025 brought together elite amateur teams from across Europe, each comprised of four players. While it’s a team event at heart, individual stroke play honours are also at stake, adding an extra layer of competition and opportunity.

The event has previously featured names like Shane Lowry, Sergio García, and Francesco Molinari before they turned professional, making it one of the clearest indicators of who’s next in the European game.

Real Club de Golf Sotogrande – The Ideal Host

Set along the southern coast of Spain, Real Club de Golf Sotogrande is no stranger to top-tier golf. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. in 1964, the course is revered for its strategic layout, fast greens, and immaculate conditioning.

It’s a venue that demands shot-making, patience, and a complete game, exactly the kind of test that produces worthy champions. Hosting Copa Sotogrande 2025 further cements its reputation as one of Europe’s top amateur competition venues.

What This Means for Spanish Golf

As much as the tournament is a platform for rising international stars, it also serves as a critical development opportunity for Spain’s own emerging talent. Competing on home soil against Europe’s best offers experience that no training session can replicate.

With Spain continuing to produce world-class players, from Jon Rahm to Carlota Ciganda, events like Copa Sotogrande 2025 ensure the talent pipeline stays full and focused.

More Than a Tournament, It’s a Statement

The Copa Sotogrande 2025 is more than a date on the calendar. It’s a reflection of Spain’s ongoing commitment to amateur golf excellence. From its investment in top-level venues to the organisation of events that attract worldwide attention, Spain isn’t just a destination, it’s an incubator of the game’s future.

The Algarve welcomed another elite field of rising talent this spring as Penina Golf Resort hosted the 2025 Portuguese International Ladies Amateur Championship. Organised by the Portuguese Golf Federation, this annual event has become one of the most respected on the European amateur circuit, both for its level of competition and the quality of its venues.

Taking place in ideal spring conditions, the 2025 edition brought together a diverse international field and delivered four days of high-calibre golf. Players faced off on one of the Algarve’s most iconic courses, with national pride, world amateur ranking points, and personal milestones all on the line.

The result? A week of pressure-tested golf, promising new faces, and yet another reason Portugal continues to shine on the competitive women’s golf map.

A Championship with History

Organised by the Portuguese Golf Federation (FPG), the Ladies Amateur Championship is part of the World Amateur Golf Ranking calendar and has long been a launchpad for future professionals. Its winners’ list includes names who have gone on to compete, and win, on the Ladies European Tour and LPGA.

Penina Golf Resort – Still a Benchmark Venue

Located near Portimão, Penina Hotel & Golf Resort is often regarded as the spiritual home of golf in the Algarve. The course was designed by Sir Henry Cotton and has hosted numerous high-profile events, including the Portuguese Open.

For this year’s amateur championship, Penina delivered again: tight fairways, firm greens, and ideal Algarve spring conditions made for a compelling tournament atmosphere, one where course management and mental focus were just as important as shot-making.

A Spotlight on Rising Stars

While the final leaderboard told one story, the week offered many narratives. From up-and-coming Portuguese talent gaining international experience to visitors from Scandinavia, France, and Spain putting in strong performances, the championship continues to serve as an essential stepping stone for Europe’s brightest young players.

It’s not just about results, it’s about development. And events like this are key to keeping Portugal on the map as both a golf holiday destination and a serious player in tournament hosting.

Why It Matters

The Portuguese International Ladies Amateur Championship 2025 is more than a title, it’s part of a broader strategy to promote women’s golf at all levels in Portugal. By pairing world-class venues with top-tier competition, the country not only supports player development but reinforces its image as a dependable, aspirational place to play.

Whether you’re a competitive amateur, a casual player, or a golf traveller seeking quality experiences, Portugal continues to offer the full package.
