Rafael Burgos and Ignacio Valcarce, new Spanish Senior Doubles Champions

They have beaten four pairs in Pineda in a single blow

Rafael Burgos from Madrid and Ignacio Valcarce from Andalusia are the new Spanish Senior Doubles Champions, thanks to their excellent first round of 66 strokes at the Real Club Pineda de Sevilla. This winning team finished four strokes ahead of a group of four other pairs.

In this second and final day, played under the Greensome format, Rafael Burgos and Ignacio Valcarce scored a 76 to leave their total at 142, a score that the teams formed by Óscar Sánchez and Efrén García-Estrada, Carlos Ollé and Jorge García (these two teams, who signed the best cards of the day, of 73 strokes), Mattias Amborn and Lars Engstrom, and Álvaro Paradinas and David Hernández-Rubio could not reach.

At the end of the first day, held under the Best Ball format, Álvaro Paradinas and David Hernández-Rubio were in the lead, followed by Rafael Burgos and Ignacio Valcarce with a narrow margin.

The winners have taken over in Seville from last year's winning pair, Juan Leach and Jorge Rubio, who also won in the 2021 and 2022 editions. This team has withdrawn this time.

This Friday, it's the Individual's turn.

This Friday, the Spanish Senior Individual Championship begins on this same course with 120 golfers participating. One of the tournament's main points of interest is whether Jacobo Cestino from Andalusia will seize the opportunity to win the individual title for the fifth time.
