Four players – Carlota Ciganda from Navarre, Belén Mozo from Cádiz, Marta Silva from Santiago de Compostela, and Patricia Sanz from Madrid – will represent Spanish golf at the U.S. Women's Collegiate League Finals, which will take place from May 18-21 at the Landfall Golf Club in Wilmington, North Carolina. This prestigious tournament, which will attract many of the world's best players, will test the mettle of these golfers, who have already proven themselves on American soil.

The individual victories of Azahara Muñoz in 2008 and María Hernández in 2009 bode well, as does the track record of the golfers involved, but the level of competition makes it impossible to speak of favorites. The same applies to the team event, in which Arizona State is defending its title, led by Carlota Ciganda and the Italian Giulia Molinaro.

The Navarrese player was already one of the best in the 2009 edition, where she finished in eleventh place and played a decisive role in her team's victory, which ended eight strokes ahead of UCLA. Carlota Ciganda holds the Spanish Championship titles in all categories and has achieved numerous prestigious international victories, including the 2004 and 2008 European Individual Championships, the 2007 British Ladies Amateur, the French International (2006 and 2008) and the Portuguese International (2008), the NCAA Western Conference Final, and a silver medal at the Mediterranean Games. She is always a sure bet.

Meanwhile, the Southern California team will feature Belén Mozo, another member of the 'golden generation' of Spanish women's golf, who has already spent three seasons in the United States. Her adaptation to American golf, her strong track record in the tournament – a 21st place finish in 2009 – and her talent are more than enough reasons to have confidence in her. An injury sidelined her for much of last season, but the Andalusian golfer has recovered and is now part of a strong team.

In Marta Silva's case, her four titles during her school years in the United States and two in her first year at the University of Georgia are her best calling card. The Galician player will compete only individually, as her team did not qualify for North Carolina.

Finally, Patricia Sanz makes her debut in this prestigious tournament with the Auburn University team. This Madrid native, who already achieved good results in Spain before embarking on her American adventure, is pursuing her first individual victory in the United States.
