Challenge Tour hopefuls have just four more tournaments to earn their spot at Club de Golf Alcanada as the acclaimed Mallorca venue prepares to host the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final supported by the R&A for the third consecutive year.
Taking place from October 31 to November 3, the showpiece end-of-season event will see the top 45 players on the Road to Mallorca rankings battle it out for just 20 precious DP World Tour cards.
Competitors will need to be at their best to earn a place on Europe’s premier tour for next season, however, thanks to Alcanada’s challenging Robert Trent Jones II-designed course. Known for its fast greens and dramatic views, the par-72 layout measures 7,108 yards from the championship tees and is sure to be one of the toughest tests that the Challenge Tour hopefuls face all season.
Alcanada has been the home of the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final every year since 2022 after hosting the event for the first time in 2019. The explosive finale of the ‘Road to Mallorca’ has become a staple of the tour, which has been a breeding ground for talents including Justin Rose, Tommy Fleetwood and Brooks Koepka.
Kristoff Both, director of Club de Golf Alcanada, said: “It is always an honour to host golf’s finest emerging talent and the course is ready to welcome the Challenge Tour back for another season next month.
“We have always taken pride in supporting developing golfers and look forward to seeing which future Ryder Cup stars and Major winners will make a name for themselves when the season comes to a close here in November!”
Club de Golf Alcanada first opened for play in 2003 and quickly earned a reputation as one of Spain’s finest layouts, bolstered by stunning views out to sea and the iconic Alcanada Lighthouse.
This year, a field of players from over a dozen countries will hope to follow in the footsteps of Italy’s Francesco Laporta and England’s Nathan Kimsey and Marco Penge by winning the curtain closer at Alcanada.
