Real Club de Golf El Prat celebrates women’s golf organizing a tournament exclusively for them on the 1st of June for the International Women’s golf day.
The Prestigious Club believes in women’s golf and have always encouraged women to play and fall in love with the game. This year, it wanted to be part of this amazing movement where many golf clubs around the globe are organizing activities and events.
Players will get on the course in the morning to play 18 holes individual stableford, and then, Estrella Damm offers them beer and water to get their strength back. The first prize will be a brunch for 6 people at the exclusive Audemars Piguet House in Barcelona. An amazing treat in the most exclusive street in the city where the best fashion stores are. In addition, there will be a prize draw with Wilson items, Metropolitan gym complements, massages and much more.
The tournament will be a great first contact for 2021 women’s golf as the Real Club de Golf El Prat will host a Ladies European Tour Access event in October with around 100 professional golfers playing the highly ranked Pink course.
The Women’s Golf Day instead will be hosted in the easier Yellow course that, thanks to the recent remodelation works carried within a Sustainable Golf Plan and under the supervision of golf legend and architect Greg Norman, has improved greatly its playability.
The Club’s general manager Ariana Martin said, “We thought there is no better way to honour the new course than with a women’s golf tournament. Our Club has always encouraged women to play golf and we are happy to see all female golfers who embrace their game and enjoy our courses. We are very happy to host an amateur tournament on the 1st of June as well as a professional one in October. The more the better”
Real Club de Golf El Prat encourages, not only their members, but also all women to try golf in Barcelona and enjoy a nice day at any of the 45 holes that Real Club de Golf El Prat has. It is, for sure, a great event for our Club and for women.
