This year, Real Club Guadalhorce Golf will host the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de España presented by Oysho for the first time.

Following the severe weather (DANA) that hit Malaga on Wednesday 13 November, the club’s team, supported by the greenkeeping section of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, has undertaken extensive maintenance work. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, the course will be in pristine condition for the competition.

This collective effort will ensure a flawless experience for players and spectators alike, with the course now ready to meet the demands of such a prestigious event.

In addition to the golfing action, the Andalucía Costa del Sol Open de España presented by Oysho will offer a range of side activities for visitors.

These include a Kids Area with children’s entertainment, a ‘jamón’ tasting, a Costa del Sol and Junta de Andalucía interactive golf experience, an Oysho showroom near the 10th tee and sponsor information stands.

This tournament is organised by Deporte and Business, with sponsorship from the Junta de Andalucía’s Department of Tourism and Turismo Costa del Sol, alongside Oysho as the naming and textile partner.
