Women’s golf in Barcelona

Many golf courses in Barcelona, over the last few years, have hosted several tournaments for women. Each of them carries out different activities throughout the year and because of the Solheim Cup 2023, they have increased the number of activities to promote it.

In 2023 one of the most important women’s golf tournaments in the world arrives in Spain: the Solheim Cup, a competition between Europe and the USA. The two teams are made up of 12 professional women’s golf players, a captain and a sub-captain. An event that brings together, not only the excitement of these nations, but all fans who want to see who has the best golf players between the continent that invented this sport and the country that seems to bring together the best athletes.

Barcelona’s golf courses have always supported women’s sport and now, with the Solheim Cup 2023, they are doing it again. Many of the Barcelona Golf Destination courses are ambassadors of this tournament with the aim of promoting it and raising awareness among golfers. A necessary and beautiful task to attract more success to women’s golf.

On a more local level, Barcelona hosts women’s golf tournaments that bring together the best national and European players.

There are already 3 editions of the Mediterranean Ladies Open, a tournament of the Ladies European Tour that is held at Club de Golf Terramar. The best players from Europe and the world meet in Sitges to play their best game. Estrella Damm, the main sponsor of the event, offers drinks and activities for fans who are in the tournament village. Because it is not just a women’s tournament, but an event with activities, stands, clinics for the little ones or a pro-am for adults. An event to enjoy with the family.

This year, Terramar has introduced new holes and a new design with a wonderful lake. In this new edition of the tournament, the excitement is assured, since the girls have never played this new course.

For the third time, a Ladies European Tour Access tournament, together with the Santander Golf Tour, is held at Real Club de Golf El Prat. The girls who compete in the second division of the European Tour with a very high competitiveness and demand, will come to the Barcelona golf course in October to try to get good rounds that will allow them to access the Ladies European Tour. This tournament has also been played on several occasions at Club de Golf Vallromanes, another high-level golf course in Barcelona that can host professional tournaments.

At an amateur level, Club de Golf Llavaneras, Barcelona Golf, Club de Golf Montanyà and Golf La Roca organize tournaments for ladies who love this sport because the seven courses of the Barcelona Golf Destination are of sufficient level to host this type of tournaments.

And why do we think that Barcelona is a perfect destination for women who love golf? Just because Barcelona has it all.

All the courses of the Barcelona Golf Destination have perfect layouts for amateur golf. Each player can choose the golf course that adapts better to their game: a long course, another with narrow fairways, one with shorter holes, another near the sea … our advisors will help you choose the best option to have an unforgettable golf vacation in Barcelona.

In addition, Barcelona offers you an infinite number of activities to complete your golf trip. In the city we have theater, cinema or music shows to enjoy a beautiful evening. Not forgetting the large number of high-quality restaurants throughout the city. Any food you can imagine, in Barcelona you will find it.

There are also many sports and fashion events for all audiences. Great events such as a FC Barcelona match, Formula 1 at the Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit with Fernando Alonso or witness a Moto GP race with the great Marc Márquez.

Another good activity, after playing golf, is to visit a SPA in the city or near the hotels that the Barcelona Golf Destination recommends. And if the players love spanish fashion, on Paseo de Gracia you will find the best fashion stores in the city.

Without a doubt, Barcelona will offer you any activity you can imagine and more, close to the golf course.
