- 3 pro-am rounds (2 rounds on South Course, 1 round on North Course. 1st, 2nd and 3rd May 2018)

As well as staging the pro-am, the resort will also host the prestigious IAGTO Trophy from May 21-24, and the 22nd edition of the popular Footballers’ Golf Classic in early June.
Three times the size of Monaco and nestling in an exclusive corner of Murcia in south-east Spain, La Manga Club has been at the forefront of European golf since opening in 1972, with its facilities including three 18-hole courses, a nine-hole academy course and outstanding practice area.
