Valderrama shines: the economic impact of LIV Golf Andalucía

The LIV Golf Andalucía at the Real Club Valderrama has once again underscored the immense potential of sporting events in boosting tourism and economic growth in Andalucía. The regional Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Sport, Arturo Bernal, highlighted in dialogue with ‘La Voz de Cádiz’ the tournament’s significant contribution to promoting Andalucía as a prime sports tourism destination. This year’s event is projected to generate an impressive economic impact of around €30 million, according to the Junta de Andalucía, a promising sign for the region’s financial future.

During the final day of the competition in San Roque, Cádiz, Bernal highlighted the significance of the Costa del Golf. This renowned destination gained iconic status following the 1997 Ryder Cup. He noted that the tournament showcases world-class golfing, is a powerful economic driver for the region, and is a superb platform for promoting sports tourism, reaching over 360 million viewers across 180 countries.

LIV Golf Andalucía: a premier global event

Bernal praised the LIV Golf Andalucía as one of the premier global sporting events, asserting that such prestigious tournaments rightly belong on the Costa del Golf in Andalucía. The region’s long-standing partnership with the Real Club Valderrama and the broader golf industry generates approximately €3 billion in revenue annually. Bernal assured the Andalusian government’s unwavering commitment to supporting major sporting events, a reassuring sign for the future of sports tourism in the region.

Alongside key figures such as Francisco Javier Ros Rodríguez, the Junta de Andalucía’s Deputy Delegate in the Campo de Gibraltar, and Tania Barcelona, the Regional Delegate for Tourism, Culture, and Sport in Cádiz, Bernal attended the tournament where Sergio García triumphed, winning in a thrilling playoff.
