Sotogrande is set to once again host one of the world’s most prestigious golf tournaments this week as LIV Andalucia takes place at the renowned Real Club Valderrama – one of four championship courses in Sotogrande. As a premier destination for golf enthusiasts, Sotogrande continues to solidify its reputation, attracting top-tier talent and visitors from around the globe.
This year’s tournament, taking place between July 12-14, promises to be a highlight on the international golf calendar, featuring some of the sport’s biggest stars, including Spain’s own Jon Rahm and Sergio Garcia. These champions will bring their exceptional skills and passion to the legendary Real Club Valderrama course, renowned for its challenging layout and stunning natural beauty.
The event is one of two elite tournaments staged in Sotogrande this year, with the DP World Tour’s Andalucia Masters returning to Real Club Sotogrande in October.
Valderrama has a storied history as a world-renowned golf venue, having hosted numerous prestigious events, including the 1997 Ryder Cup matches and the DP World Tour’s Andalucia Masters. The #1 ranked course in Spain’s immaculate fairways and greens, set against the backdrop of the scenic Andalucian landscape, offer both players and spectators an unforgettable experience.
“Sotogrande is thrilled to welcome the global golf community to Valderrama for LIV Andalucia,” said Rita Jordao, Director of Marketing for Sotogrande. “Our region is synonymous with world-class golf, as home to three of Spain’s top 10 courses including #1 and #2, and we are excited to showcase our exceptional facilities and hospitality to an international audience again. Hosting such a significant event underscores Sotogrande’s status as a must-visit destination for golf lovers.
