The Royal Spanish Golf Federation, together with the Autonomous Federations and the support of the Higher Sports Council through its Women and Sport program, promotes the television program HOLAGOLF, a fifteen-minute magazine.
The aim of this program, presented by journalist Miguel Ángel Barbero and professional golfer Patricia Lobato, is to introduce golf to those unfamiliar with it by highlighting its many benefits, such as health, nature, and physical activity. Additionally, leading figures in the sport collaborate to dispel the prejudices that have historically been associated with this recreational and athletic activity.
The twenty-first installment reviews the latest golf news, focusing on a summary of the National Circuit, the Tumi PGA Spain Tour. Galician golfer Álvaro Veiga secured victory at the Madrid Championship held at the Campo de la Dehesa, as did Rocco Repetto from Málaga a few weeks later in Lerma.
Also, in the 'Kiko I need you' section, the great Poty Castillo swaps dance classes for an intense ball-hitting clinic taught by the master Kiko Luna.
This week's interview features a rising star in Spanish women's golf. Ángela Revuelta, the youngest sister of a talented golfing dynasty, has already been crowned Spanish Junior and Under-16 Champion at a young age. Now she's pursuing her dream of reaching the top.
Meanwhile, at Damasgolf, the spotlight is on the LETAS tournament held in Ávila, which highlights the importance of bringing international events of this caliber to Spain. For this to happen, good organization is essential.
As the golf season draws to a close, there are fewer and fewer tournaments left to play. In 'Hugolf's Word,' journalist Hugo Costa explains the concept of the Back Nine on the European Tour, where the best events of the season are yet to come.
Apart from the weekly premieres, all HOLAGOLF programs are regularly rebroadcast on Teledeporte and are also available for online viewing at http://www.rtve.es/alacarta/videos/holagolf/, www.holagolf.es and www.rfegolf.es.
