An exclusive amateur tournament that goes far beyond the classic game, combining golf with enjoyment, sunshine, and Mediterranean flair. The event is played on one of Europe’s finest golf courses: the prestigious Son Gual Golf Club. Anyone looking for a weekend full of style, sporting elegance, and a holiday atmosphere will find the perfect combination here.
