February 7, 2024 – Club de Golf Alcanada will welcome some of Mallorca’s best amateur golfers when it stages the final of the annual Golf East Mallorca Winter Slam on February 8, sponsored by UNUS Golf and Skechers GO GOLF.

Getting underway in November, the popular series will conclude at Alcanada after an eight-event tour of four leading Mallorca golf venues: Alcanada, Pula Golf, Club de Golf Son Servera and Capdepera Golf.

After the final round, entrants in all four categories – Female, Scratch, 1st Classification Male and 2nd Classification Male – who have played at least one round at each course will be invited to a lunch and prize-giving ceremony.

Alcanada is no stranger to hosting golf’s rising stars – including as home of the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final in 2019, 2022, 2023 and 2024 – and will stage the prestigious Copa SM El Rey, Spain’s biggest amateur golf tournament, later this month. (February)

Opened in 2003 and boasting a course designed by renowned architect Robert Trent Jones Jnr, Alcanada is the island’s only true coastal golf club. The par-72 layout slopes gently down to the Mediterranean Sea, where the emblematic Alcanada Lighthouse has stood on an island just offshore for over 160 years.

Meanwhile, Pula Golf – host of two events on the season’s GEM Winter Slam schedule – has its own iconic name attached in the form of José María Olazábal, who redesigned the par-72 course from 2004 – 2006. Pula is well-known in golfing circles as home of the Mallorca Classic on the DP World Tour (then European Tour) between 2003 and 2007.

Kristoff Both, director of Club de Golf Alcanada, said: “We have always been extremely proud to be a part of Mallorca’s golf scene and wider community, and it’s an honour to host the final event of another successful GEM Winter Slam.

“Watching the island’s most passionate golfers compete on our course is always a privilege, whether golf is a lifelong hobby or they’re new to the sport.”
