Real Club de Golf El Prat (Terrassa, Barcelona), one of only four teams to have won the Men's European Club Championship, is representing Spanish golf this week in a new edition, to be held at the Cabot Bordeaux course (Bordeaux, France). Their goal is to win a medal in a tournament that has eluded Spanish hands since 2003.

The Barcelona team will play from October 24th to 26th as a reward for their victory in the Spanish Interclub Championship last September, where they defeated Castiello from Asturias in the final. On that occasion, they were led by Marcel Fonseca, Juan Dalmau, Xavi Yagüe, and Vicente Mestre.

The first two repeat in the southwest French route, accompanied by Josep Maria Serra and Captain Pablo Güell.

The competition, as usual, welcomes twenty-three other teams from as many countries across Europe; among them, the Austrians from Golfclub Murhof, winners last year in Portugal.

This European Men's Club Championship is decided over three days in which each team, made up of three players, will play 18 holes under the stroke play format, establishing a ranking based on the two best scores of each day.

Four winning clubs for seven titles

Only four Spanish teams have truly shone in this Men's European Club Championship to date: Real Club de Golf El Prat (winner in 1981, 1982, and 1985), RSHE Club de Campo (1975), Terramar (1991), and Real Club de Golf de la Puerta de Hierro (1987 and 2003). In total, seven titles have gone to Spanish golf, a considerable haul given that the tournament has been held since 1975.
