Carlota Ciganda and Azahara Muñoz have qualified to represent Spain in women's golf at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, whose competition will take place at the French course of Le Golf National, in the town of Versailles, between August 7 and 10, just three days after the conclusion of the men's tournament, whose Spanish representation is carried out by Jon Rahm and David Puig.

Carlota Ciganda from Navarre and Azahara Muñoz from Malaga have occupied the top Spanish positions in the World Golf Ranking – specifically positions 30 and 107 – at the conclusion of the Olympic qualification period, which ran from June 20, 2022 to June 24, 2024.

Americans Nelly Korda and Lilia Vu – the former a gold medalist at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games – top the aforementioned ranking, which gives them the role of major references in the Parisian tournament, which will have the participation of 60 players from various countries based on a selection criterion that establishes certain requirements and discards.

Carlota Ciganda and Azahara Muñoz repeat their Olympic experience for the third time

For the third consecutive time, Carlota Ciganda and Azahara Muñoz will represent Spain at the Olympic Games. Their performance in Brazil in 2016 resulted in 21st place for Azahara Muñoz and 39th place for Carlota Ciganda, while in Tokyo 2020 their positions were reversed: 29th place for Muñoz and 50th for Ciganda.

Regular players on the American Women's Tour for several years, both Carlota Ciganda and Azahara Muñoz have become essential references in Spanish women's golf, backed in both cases by a career adorned with numerous successes.

Carlota Ciganda's record includes Spanish Championships in all categories – from junior to professional – as well as a victory on the LETAS Circuit, seven on the Ladies European Tour, three on the LPGA and four major contributions to the European team's victories in the Solheim Cup in 2013, 2019, 2021 and 2023 – the latter at Finca Cortesín, with a historic performance remembered by all – where she is a reference for her well-known grit and determination.

For her part, Azahara Muñoz boasts three Solheim Cups (2011, 2013 and 2019) in her brilliant sporting resume, having already achieved victory in the 2009 Madrid Ladies Masters of the European Circuit in what was her first tournament as a professional. 

From that moment on, Azahara Muñoz's sporting career was forged on the basis of duets, completing a brilliant record of service: two victories in the American Women's Circuit, two consecutive triumphs in the French Women's Open (2013 and 2014) and another two in the Spanish Women's Open (2016 and 2017), where she became the first Spanish woman in history to lift the champion's cup.
