Finca Cortesin appoints new ambassador

Finca Cortesin, host of the 2023 Solheim Cup, has appointed Spanish professional and Ladies European Tour (LET) player Ana Peláez as its new ambassador to mark the approaching six-month countdown to the tournament.

The LET star further solidifies Finca Cortesin’s reputation as one of the top quality and lifestyle destinations in the world, while also demonstrating the resort’s dedication to supporting women’s sports.

A native of the Costa del Sol, Ana Peláez has stood out last year for her technical ability and her precision in the game, after having achieved victory at the Madrid Ladies Open in May 2022.

The 25-year-old Spaniard has high hopes of making Suzann Pettersen’s European team in September and is widely regarded as one of the country’s promising young players.

“It is an incredible opportunity to represent Finca Cortesin and have their unconditional support as I play week after week on the Ladies European Tour. Playing and training in the Solheim Cup 2023 venue is amazing and will boost my career”, said Peláez.

“The resort has a great track record of supporting local women and girls in the industry by providing them with the necessary conditions to succeed”, concluded.

“Finca Cortesin is delighted to welcome Ana Peláez as an ambassador. Having Ana as an ambassador for the resort will help us to consolidate our position as the venue for the Solheim Cup but also contributes to promoting golf among the new generation of Spanish golfers”, said Vicente Rubio, general director and president of Finca Cortesin.

“The resort is eager to collaborate with Ana to highlight the significance of Spain’s first-ever hosting of the Solheim Cup. We are dedicated to giving you all you need to fight for a place on the European squad in September of this year as the event’s host”, Rubio continued.

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.
