Miguel Fuertes from Valencia (-5 total) and Ángela Revuelta from Madrid (par) are the new Spanish Under 16 champions, an honor they have achieved by consolidating on the last day the supremacy they had shown in the second round on the Asturian courses of La Llorea (venue of the female event) and La Barganiza (male).

Miguel Fuertes flexed his muscles, carding his best round of the week, a 65 (-5), leaving his rivals with no chance of a comeback. At the crucial moment of the week, the Valencian golfer sealed six birdies and a single bogey to further extend his lead over Raúl Gómez (even par), who also shot under par on Sunday (69, -1).

Third place went to Oliver de Wint from Andalusia, who played exceptionally well in this session with a score of 67 (-3). His five birdies gave him a one-stroke advantage over Pelayo Fernández from Asturias and Diego de los Ríos from Madrid.

Ángela Revuelta also proved strong on the final day, in her case at La Llorea. The Madrid golfer, a member of the magnificent and successful Revuelta family dynasty in our sport, secured her victory with four birdies on the back nine to finish with a 71 (-1).

Thus, she surpassed Adriana García Terol (+5) – the current Under-14 champion of the English International – by five strokes. The Barcelona native was penalized by a triple bogey on the 11th; that's where her chances of victory began to slip away.

The third position was shared by Valencian Clara Usó -signator of one of the three rounds under par of the day- and Martina Navarro from Alicante, both with +8 to the total.

Good cards from the first day in Asturias

Both events have showcased a high level of play from the outset. Raúl Gómez's impressive score (-3) in the men's event and the fierce competition in the women's, evidenced by four golfers sharing the lead, marked the beginning of these Spanish Under-16 Championships on Friday.

Starting with the boys, the first day saw the good performance of one of the big favorites for the win, Raúl Gómez, who signed a round of 67 strokes in which there were four birdies and a single bogey.

Meanwhile, at La Llorea, the competition was fierce, with no golfer finishing under par. Madrid native Marta Muñoz (with seventeen pars), Martina Navarro, Inés González, and Laura Gorgees all carded 73 strokes (+1) in their rounds.

On the second day, hampered by the continuous rain delays, Miguel Fuertes and Ángela Revuelta, with the first round under par of the week in the women's tournament, took the lead.

In the men's competition, Miguel Fuertes took over the lead from his fellow countryman Raúl Gómez with a round of 71 (+1). The outgoing leader, who started with a double bogey-bogey sequence, added only one stroke more, thus keeping his chances of winning intact. The best round of the day was a 69 (-1) by Nicolás Vidal from the Canary Islands.

At La Llorea, Ángela Revuelta's very commendable 70 (-2) allowed her to climb nine places and take the sole lead with a two-stroke advantage over Adriana García Terol, who carded a 73 (+1). Everything pointed to an exciting head-to-head battle, which is exactly what unfolded on the final day.

Both tournaments are valid for the National Under 16 and Children's Rankings, as well as for the World Rankings.
