Results and additional tournament information can be found below in Related Content.

A formidable Macarena Campomanes, hardened in a thousand battles, has been the great protagonist of the last day of the European Senior Individual Championships, thanks to a great comeback of sixteen places, based on an excellent card of 69 strokes (-3), by far the best, not only of the day but of the tournament, for a total of 232 strokes (+16), which has taken her to a more than meritorious seventh place.

The Madrid native had a blistering start to the match, with two birdies on the first two holes and a total of five on the front nine, without a single bogey. However, on the back nine she couldn't maintain that momentum, carding one birdie and three bogeys, two of them on the last two holes, which prevented a truly spectacular round.

With this score of 69 strokes, Macarena Campomanes has made up in the best possible way for the disappointment of the previous two rounds of the tournament, of 80 and 83 strokes respectively, and her total of 232 strokes has left her six behind the winner, the Belgian Sylvie Van Molle.

Following the Real Club Puerta de Hierro player were María Castillo and Natalia Martínez-Reboredo. The golfer from the Canary Islands finished in eighteenth place, climbing two positions after a final round of 79 strokes (+7), while the Galician player improved throughout the tournament, with her final round of 86 strokes (+14) causing her to drop nine places to finish in twenty-third position.

The final round of the European Senior Individual Championship in the men's category left Gonzalo Paradinas as the only Spanish representative due to Jacobo Cestino's surprising missed cut the previous day.

In these last 18 holes, the Madrid player has signed a round of 78 strokes (+6) for a total of 224 strokes (+8), which has made him lose ten places in the classification and finish sixteenth, seven strokes behind the winner, the Frenchman Rodrigo Lacerda.

Natalia Martínez-Reboredo, sixth, best Spanish start

The European Senior Individual Men's and Women's Championship began at the Cornelia Golf Club in Turkey with the first day of competition, in which the Spanish representation had Natalia Martínez-Reboredo as the most outstanding.

The player from Real Club de Golf de La Coruña handed in a card of 76 strokes (+4), which helped her to share sixth place and be three strokes behind the leader, the Frenchwoman Hélène Malvy, who signed 73 strokes (+1).

Continuing with the Spanish theme, after the Galician player came María Castillo, fourteenth after a round of 79 strokes (+7), and Macarena Campomanes, eighteenth with 80 strokes (+8).

As for the men's category, the best-performing Spanish player was Gonzalo Paradinas, who finished with a score of 73 strokes (+1), which placed him thirteenth, four strokes behind the leader, shared by Sweden's Michael Rydén and England's John Kemp, both with rounds of 69 strokes (-3).

The other Spanish representative, Jacobo Cestino, who knows what it's like to win this tournament, had to settle for a score of 74 strokes (+2), which led him to share twentieth place.

Heads and tails on the second day

The European Senior Individual Men's and Women's Championships closed the second day with an exchange of positions in the Spanish representation, as Gonzalo Paradinas became the best Spanish option, after climbing seven places and reaching the shared sixth place.

The Madrid player replicated his first day's round, 73 strokes (+1), and with a total of 146 strokes (+2), he was four strokes behind the leader, Irishman Edward McCormack.

The good news wasn't complete for the Spanish representation in the men's category, as Jacobo Cestino failed to make the cut.

In the women's competition, Natalia Martínez-Reboredo dropped eight places and, although she remained the highest-ranked Spaniard, finished in fourteenth position. The Galician player carded an 83 (+11), for a total of 159 (+15), placing her 17 strokes behind the leader, Belgian Sylvie Van Molle.

The cut, also established in the female category, was saved by María Castillo and Macarena Campomanes, but both lost positions to be placed in 20th and 23rd positions respectively.

A tournament with a distinctly Spanish influence

This European Senior Individual Championship has left unforgettable moments for Spanish golf in recent years, starting with the memory of that Saturday in September 2020 in Hossegor (France) in which Jacobo Cestino and María de Orueta dominated the two titles at stake after resolving two high-level duels with the Frenchman Pierre Carpentier and the Canary Islander María Castillo.

Throughout these two decades of competition, the tournament has also recorded the triumph of Miguel Preysler (2006) in the male category, and those of Rocío Ruiz de Velasco (2012), María de Orueta (2015 and 2020) and Macarena Campomanes (2016, 2018 and 2019) in the female category.

Likewise, golfers such as Luis Javier Trenor, Catalina Castillejo, Juan Sánchez, Vicky Pertierra, Beatriz Ramírez de Haro or María Castillo herself also delivered brilliant performances.
