The Copa de Andalucia is a 72-hole competition played under the Stroke Play format over a consecutive four-day period. Eighteen holes are played each day. On day four the field is reduced to the 50 ladies and the 50 men who have placed highest on their respective leaderboards. All competitors are eligible to earn points in the Sub18 National Ranking and in the Amateur World Ranking.<\/p>\n
