Girona, Spain

The 2031 Ryder Cup, one of golf’s most prestigious tournaments, will take place at the Camiral Golf and Wellness Resort in Girona, Spain. This significant announcement was made by the president of the Catalan Golf Federation, who indicated that the official confirmation will be made next week. This will mark Spain’s second time hosting the Ryder Cup, following the first event held in 1997 at Valderrama Golf Club in Andalusia.

The Camiral resort, formerly known as PGA Catalunya, has established itself as a premier golfing destination, having previously hosted various European Tour events, including the Spanish Open. The decision to feature this venue was first reported by a local Spanish newspaper. Since its acquisition in 2008 by Irish businessman Denis O’Brien, significant investments have been made to upgrade the courses and facilities at Camiral, which is currently ranked as the third-best golf course in Spain by Golf Digest.

The Ryder Cup is eagerly anticipated among golf enthusiasts, not only for its competitive nature but also for its rich history associated with renowned Spanish golfers such as Seve Ballesteros, José María Olazábal, and Sergio García. The inaugural Ryder Cup in Spain in 1997 was notable for being the first to take place in continental Europe, with Europe triumphing by a narrow margin of 14½ to 13½ against the United States.

This upcoming event is set to maintain the biennial schedule of the Ryder Cup, which will see its next edition take place at Bethpage Black in New York in September this year. Future tournaments are planned at various prestigious venues, with the next Ryder Cup in Europe set for 2027 at Adare Manor in Ireland. Following the 2031 event in Girona, the competitions will continue at Hazeltine National in Minnesota in 2029, and the Olympic Club in San Francisco in 2033.

As the world of golf observes the lead-up to the event, the excitement builds not only for the competition itself but also for the opportunity to showcase Spain’s beautiful golfing landscape. The selection of Girona is expected to draw not only local fans but international visitors, further boosting the local economy and golf tourism in the region.

The confirmation of Girona as the host city for the 2031 Ryder Cup highlights Spain’s ongoing role in the global golfing community and its contributions to the sport’s rich history. Announcements regarding future Ryder Cup events will be communicated as plans develop.
