Atalaya Golf hosts another edition of the Heineken Golf Circuit

Posted on

Atalaya Golf & Country Club proudly hosted another outstanding edition of the Heineken Golf Circuit, welcoming golfers for a day that perfectly combined competitive golf, social atmosphere and charitable giving on the Costa del Sol.

Played as a Pairs Better Ball Stableford competition with a shotgun start, the tournament brought together members, subscribers and visiting golfers for one of the club’s most enjoyable social events of the season.

With up to 116 players taking part, competitors enjoyed excellent course conditions, friendly competition and the welcoming atmosphere that defines golf at Atalaya.

A day of golf with a greater purpose

Beyond the competition itself, the Heineken Golf Circuit also carried an important charitable initiative. €5 from every player’s green fee was donated to the Fundación Médula para Mateo, supporting the Proyecto Mateo, an initiative led by Dr. Antonio Pérez-Martínez within the Advanced Childhood Cancer Therapies Unit at Hospital La Paz.

The project focuses on researching new therapeutic treatments for Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukaemia (JMML), offering hope to children and families affected by this rare disease. By participating in the tournament, every player contributed directly to this meaningful cause.

Strong performances across every category

The tournament delivered excellent scoring, with several pairs producing outstanding Better Ball Stableford rounds.

Handicap Winners

1st Handicap Pair – 49 Stableford points

  • Antonio Mena Quirós
  • Guillermo Alcalá Besga

2nd Handicap Pair – 46 Stableford points

  • Alejandro Giesen
  • Francisco de Borja Solis

As winners of the Handicap category, Antonio Mena Quirós and Guillermo Alcalá Besga also secured qualification for the Heineken Golf Circuit Grand Final.

Scratch Winners

1st Scratch Pair – 36 Scratch Points

  • Manuela Esculapio
  • Óscar Teruel Peradalta

Their consistent play throughout the round earned them the Scratch title against a highly competitive field.

More than just a golf tournament

In addition to the main competition, players also competed for:

  • Nearest the Pin prizes on four designated holes.
  • Longest Drive awards for both men and women.
  • A prize raffle featuring golf equipment, Heineken gifts and exclusive prizes during the post-round cocktail.

Toyota also joined the event as an official partner, showcasing its latest vehicles throughout the day, adding another attraction for participants and guests.

A Cielo Abierto Furniture also took part in the event, showcasing a selection of its premium outdoor furniture throughout the club. Its elegant displays added a touch of style and inspiration, allowing players and guests to discover high-quality pieces designed for outdoor living.

A full day of golf

Events such as the Heineken Golf Circuit perfectly reflect the spirit of Atalaya Golf & Country Club: exceptional golf, a vibrant international community and memorable experiences both on and off the course.

The Heineken Golf Circuit was a success. From the first tee shot to the prize presentation, the tournament combined sporting excellence, great hospitality and a shared commitment to supporting an important charitable cause, making it another successful chapter in Atalaya’s busy tournament calendar.

We congratulate all the winners and thank every player, partner and sponsor for helping make this year’s Heineken Golf Circuit another fantastic success.

Estepona offers a varied summer programme for visitors of all ages. Throughout July and August, the town hosts cultural activities, open-air cinema, seafront markets, concerts, festivals and gastronomic events. Traditional highlights include the Virgen del Carmen maritime procession, while the summer market and book fair bring extra life to the promenade for much of the season.
