RCG Sotogrande is often voted to be among the top ten golf courses in Europe - and rightly so. "Sotogrande Old", as it is called by the locals, boasts mature vegetation with pine, cork oaks, eucalyptus and giant palm trees enhancing the natural beauty of the surroundings.
The first professional event to be played after Sotogrande's inauguration was the 1966 Spanish Open won by Roberto de Vicenzo with 279 strokes; the clubhouse winner boards show Severiano Ballesteros made the same score twenty-one years later to win the Spanish PGA Championship.
