The Sant Cugat Golf Club, representing Spain in the European Ladies Club Championship held at the Bulgarian course of Pravets, finished in a commendable sixth place, 17 strokes behind the French team from Racing Club de France, winner of the title.

The Barcelona team that traveled to Bulgaria was made up of Nagore Martínez, Clara Sanchiz and Carlota Carmona, winners of the Spanish Interclub Championship in mid-July, on that occasion together with Adriana García Terol. 

The great work they did then earned them the passport to represent Spain in this Women's European Club Championship and compete for what would have been Spain's third victory in this competition.

The members from Sant Cugat offered a solid image, reflected in joint cards of 152, 149 and 152 for a total of 453 that placed them from the first moment at the top of the table, aspiring to reach the podium until the last moment.

Nagore Martínez, with a total of 225 strokes, finished in ninth place in the individual standings, which were led by Denmark's Cecilie Leth-Nissen, the top performer in this category, with 215 strokes. Clara Sanchiz and Carlota Carmona, in 17th and 20th place respectively, completed the performance of the Sant Cugat players in this competition.

Two victories in the Spanish tally

Spanish golf achieved its first victory in the inaugural edition thanks to the RACE (Madrid) trio of Adriana Zwanck, Carmen Alonso, and Marta Martín del Castillo. Since then, they have had several good performances, but none have been rewarded with the top prize until 2012.

It was then that Ane Urchegui, Laura Urbistondo and Ainhoa Olarra won the title for the San Sebastian team of Basozábal through a solid and brilliant performance on the Greek course of Corfu Golf Club.
