The Royal Spanish Golf Federation, together with the Autonomous Federations and the support of the Higher Sports Council through its Women and Sport program, promotes the television program HOLAGOLF, a fifteen-minute magazine.
The aim of this program, presented by journalist Miguel Ángel Barbero and professional golfer Patricia Lobato, is to introduce golf to those unfamiliar with it by highlighting its many benefits, such as health, nature, and physical activity. Additionally, leading figures in the sport collaborate to dispel the prejudices that have historically been associated with this recreational and athletic activity.
In the fourteenth installment of the season, the program focuses, in the 'Current Events' section, on the Communication and Companies Cup, which after more than fifteen editions continues to promote the values of golf, this time through an excellent tournament that highlighted the inclusion and intrinsic diversity of the sport of golf.
Meanwhile, this week's 'Interview' features the youth and ambition of a golfer aiming for the top. Lucas Vacarisas, from Catalonia, challenges himself.
The 'Golf is Health' section returns, presented by physiotherapist Pablo Llanes. Knee injuries are infrequent but very troublesome. Beginners should pay special attention to avoid this type of physical damage.
The "Signature Courses" section focuses on a course that is unique for its setting and the majesty of its surroundings: the Real Club de Golf de la Herrería. Located in San Lorenzo del Escorial, it is a must-visit for both locals and tourists.
On the other hand, ensuring proper care of a golf course is fundamental to its maintenance. Mario Ballester, greenkeeper at El Saler, shares his firsthand experience in "The Report." Finally, journalist Hugo Costa explores new and exotic courses in Portugal in "Hugolf's Word.".
Apart from the weekly premieres, all HOLAGOLF programs are regularly rebroadcast on Teledeporte and are also available for online viewing at http://www.rtve.es/alacarta/videos/holagolf/, www.holagolf.es and www.rfegolf.es.
