Golf in Spain is becoming Cheaper by the Day!
Flamingos & Santana Price drop for 2009
Further examples of increasing value on the Costa del Sol is the decision of Santana to reverse a price increase announced a few months ago for 2009. They have now decided to hold prices at the 2008 rates. A wise decision.

In addition they have a new “Combo” rate for golfers who play both Flamingos Golf & Gran Flamingos. For €150 you can enjoy both these great courses throughout the high season on 2009.

Valderrama may host a new major tournament in 2009
Colin Montgomery on Valderramas 17th Hole
While the Volvo Masters has bid farewell to Valderrama we hear that Valderrama may yet hold a major tournament in 2009 at the same time as the Volvo Masters. If this materialises this would mean that Andalucia will host at least 3 major tournaments in 2009, the Andalucia Open at Aloha, the Volvo World Match-play at Finca Cortesin and a new tournament at Valderrama. Andalucia may also host the Spanish Open as it did in 2008 in Seville.

Security on Courses
We would warn golfers to take particular care of personal belongings when playing strange courses. Unfortunately from time to time we hear of wallets being stolen from golf bags during a game of golf.
Inevitably this happens to visitors who are unaware of the vulnerable areas on strange courses when their bags can be unsighted for the short time required for the deed to occur. So please, use common sense when it comes to personal belongings on a golf course.
