# Golf tournaments on the Costa del Sol: Nov–Dec 2026

By Rodrigo · TeesDeSalida (https://teesdesalida.es/en/about). Published 12 November 2026.

Three amateur tournaments at Costa del Sol courses in our directory still take entries in November: Lauro this Sunday, 15 November (€95, entries close **today at 17:00**), and two on Saturday 28 November, a seniors' event at Santa María (€75) and a pairs open at Torrequebrada (€105). Only Torrequebrada's says in writing that it welcomes players from abroad, and on the days of these events a tournament may be the only way onto the course in the morning.

Below is what each club publishes on NextCaddy, the Andalusian federation's competition site, read on Wednesday 11 November, next to the club's own green fees and a check of its tee sheet that morning.

## Which tournaments are left in November?

| Tournament              | Course        | Day         | Entry fee | Entries close     |
| ----------------------- | ------------- | ----------- | --------- | ----------------- |
| VIII Torneo Volvo Vypsa | Lauro         | Sunday 15   | €95       | Thursday 12, 5 pm |
| Torneo Senior Otoño     | Santa María   | Saturday 28 | €75       | Monday 23, noon   |
| IV Torneo Jésica Reyes  | Torrequebrada | Saturday 28 | €105      | Thursday 26, 9 am |

The fees are the ones for players who aren't members of the club. All three are handicap stableford.

## Can you play them with a foreign handicap?

- **Torrequebrada: yes, in writing.** The rules say amateurs of any nationality with a valid licence and a **handicap of 36 or lower** can play. Players from abroad must send a valid handicap certificate from the golf union of their country of residence with their entry.
- **Lauro: ask.** The page doesn't say which licence or maximum handicap it accepts, and entries are taken at the club, not online.
- **Santa María: read the circular first.** It is a test of the Andalusian federation's seniors' committee, with the age and handicap rules in a federation circular linked from [the NextCaddy page](https://www.nextcaddy.com/tour/61235). We couldn't open it when writing this, so we can't tell you the minimum age or whether a foreign licence counts.

## Lauro, Sunday 15: the club day, and today's deadline

The VIII Torneo Volvo Vypsa is [Lauro Golf](https://teesdesalida.es/en/courses/lauro-golf)'s club day, in Alhaurín de la Torre, played on its A and B loops. Non-members pay **€95**; members pay their green fee plus €45. The fee includes a welcome pack, a breakfast buffet from 7:15 to 8:45 and a barbecue after the round.

- **9:00 shotgun start**, men from the yellow tees and women from the red.
- **Three categories**: two men's categories (each half of the field) and a women's one.
- **Prizes** for the top two in each category and the best scratch player, plus longest drive and nearest the pin.

Is it worth it? Lauro is in high season until 30 November, with an €85 green fee (€95 at peak time) on the tariff we read on 15 October. The tournament costs the same as peak time and adds breakfast and lunch. A buggy isn't mentioned; at Lauro it costs €45.

If you weren't planning to enter, don't plan a round there either: at 06:41 on 11 November, Lauro's booking page showed **no free tee time for two players** that Sunday. Entries are at the club, by **17:00 today**.

## Santa María, Saturday 28: seniors, and the cheapest

The Torneo Senior Otoño Costa del Sol at [Santa María Golf & Country Club](https://teesdesalida.es/en/courses/santa-maria-golf-country-club), in Marbella, **counts for the Andalusian federation's senior ranking**. It costs **€75** with lunch, for at most 100 players, with a 9:15 shotgun start. Buggies are booked with the club, at €30. A practice round on 25–27 November costs €69 with a shared buggy.

A visitor's tariff that morning is **€130** (€105 for the 8:00–8:50 early bird), on the club's tariff checked on 6 October. But on 11 November its booking page sold nothing for two players before **14:30**: seven tee times from 14:30 to 15:30, at **€80** a player, each flagged by our app as likely to finish after sunset. If you qualify, the tournament is the way to play the morning. Entries are online until **Monday 23 at noon**.

## Torrequebrada, Saturday 28: pairs, open to visitors

The IV Torneo Jésica Reyes at [Golf Torrequebrada](https://teesdesalida.es/en/courses/golf-torrequebrada), in Benalmádena, is **four-ball better ball stableford**: you each play your own ball, and the better score of the two counts on each hole.

- **Fee**: **€105** a player (€85 for members), with green fee, a shared buggy, welcome pack, on-course refreshments, and canapés and drinks at the prize-giving.
- **Places**: 96 players; on 11 November **72** were left, down from 78 on 9 November.
- **Timing**: 9:30 shotgun; be at your buggy by 9:10. The draw, by handicap, is published at noon the day before.
- **Prizes**: the top three handicap pairs and the best scratch pair. Both players must be at the prize-giving to collect.

On 28 November Torrequebrada is in mid season: **€105** in the morning and €119 at midday, plus €45 for a buggy. The tournament costs the same as a morning round and the buggy is included. And at 06:41 on 11 November its booking page showed **no free tee time for two** that day. Entry and payment are online until **Thursday 26 at 9:00**, or until the field is full.

The Ladies Spanish Open is played that weekend at La Cala, in Mijas; tickets and the schedule are in [our guide](https://teesdesalida.es/en/blog/ladies-spanish-open-2026).

## What about December?

On 11 November NextCaddy listed two December events at Torrequebrada, neither with an entry fee or a registration window yet:

| Tournament                                          | Days                      | Format                          |
| --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| Winter Amateur Series (3 rounds)                    | Monday 14 to Wednesday 16 | Handicap medal play, 200 places |
| Campeonato Internacional de Andalucía Dobles Senior | Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 | Scratch medal play, seniors     |

The Winter Amateur Series is the one to watch if you winter on the coast: three midweek rounds of handicap medal play. Those days fall in Torrequebrada's winter low season, when a morning round costs **€91**, so the entry fee, once published, has a clear yardstick.

## Before you enter

1. **Lauro**: phone or call in at the club before **17:00 today** and ask which licence and handicap it accepts.
2. **Santa María**: read the federation circular for age and handicap, enter online by **Monday 23 at noon**, and book your buggy with the club.
3. **Torrequebrada**: find a partner, check you're on 36 or lower, get a handicap certificate from your home union, and enter online before **Thursday 26 at 9:00**.
4. **Follow the area's events** on [Costa del Sol tournaments](https://teesdesalida.es/en/tournaments/costa-del-sol), and for a round on another day see the free tee times in [the app](https://teesdesalida.es/#/?zona=costa-del-sol&lang=en) or the [green fees near Málaga](https://teesdesalida.es/en/blog/golf-near-malaga-green-fees).
