The first test of the Santander Golf Tour 2024 opened the season in Empordà Golf with Madrid’s Clara Moyano and Huelva’s Esperanza Serrano as the first leaders of the tournament that debuts a new competition format.
Empordà Golf hosts this first tournament, which is develops until tomorrow on the Forest routeand which helped to mitigate the effects of the Tramuntana that was noticeable in the morning in Girona.
The two Spaniards were placed in in front of the classification after posting a round of 68 (-4) in the new ‘Birdie Challenge’ format.
It is a new modality where the pair is guaranteed. In case a player didn’t get any birdies in the first nine holes, he would account for a bogey on the ninth, and in the same case, on the second nine.
The Andalusian player, Esperanza Serranowho was debuting as a professional, had a great round with four birdies, which have taken him to the top of the classification sharing the lead with the Madrid player Clara Moyano.
After Esperanza and Clara, they only threaten one birdie away, the Andalusian Laura Gomezthe French Lucie Andréwinner last season in Girona, and Madrid Maria Herraez minus three in total.
