Noemi Jimenez to lead Women's Golf Day celebrations at Finca Cortesin

14 May 2019

Female golfers of all ages will have the opportunity to learn from one of Europe’s top emerging stars next month when Spanish ace Noemi Jiménez hosts an exclusive golf clinic at Finca Cortesin Hotel, Golf & Spa to help the luxury resort celebrate this year’s global Women’s Golf Day.

Jiménez, Finca Cortesin’s touring professional and currently 38th in the 2019 Ladies European Tour Order of Merit standings, will be on hand to lead a fun-packed morning on and off the course on Tuesday, June 4 as the deluxe resort in Andalucia joins hundreds of golf venues around the world marking the international event.

As part of the day, players of all abilities can enjoy nine holes on Finca Cortesin’s 18-hole championship course – rated as one of the top layouts in Spain – followed by a golf clinic hosted by Jimenez at the resort’s state-of-the-art Jack Nicklaus Golf Academy.

And, after spending the morning fine-tuning their swings, everyone taking part will then have the chance to relax in style with a lunchtime cocktail at the golf clubhouse.

Held for the first time in 2016, Women’s Golf Day has grown to become an established part of the international golfing calendar.

Over the past three years, events have been held at more than 900 venues in 52 countries – delivering a golf experience to 50,000-plus women and girls – and having entered into a new partnership with the ANNIKA Foundation, the charitable foundation of women’s golf legend Annika Sorenstam, this year’s event will reach further than ever before.

Opened in March 2006 and set across a vast 532-acre estate, Finca Cortesin – a member of the prestigious European Tour Destinations network – is regarded as one of the world’s most exclusive modern golf and lifestyle destination resorts.

Designed by American Cabell Robinson, the par-72 layout has hosted numerous high-profile tournaments including the Volvo World Match Play Championship in 2009, 2011 and 2012. Complementing the world-class golf course are outstanding practice facilities including a state-of-the-art Jack Nicklaus Golf Academy.

Located in the rolling hills of southern Spain, between Marbella and Sotogrande, with the Mediterranean to one side and the tranquil Casares Mountains to the other, Finca Cortesin’s other world-class facilities include an elegant 67-suite hotel, Hotel Cortesin; a 6,000sqm Beach Club; an award-winning spa featuring Spain’s only snow cave; and the choice of four restaurants.
