- Her Majesty Queen Letizia, Honorary President of the Solheim Cup 2023
- The Royal House shows its support for golf and women’s sports
Her Majesty Queen Letizia has accepted the Honorary Presidency of the Solheim Cup 2023, a prestigious international women’s team competition that will face Europe and the United States on Spanish soil for the first time in the history of the tournament from September 18 to 24, 2023 in Finca Cortesín (Costa del Sol, Andalusia).
The unconditional support of the Royal Family confirms its commitment to women’s sport and golf as ideal vehicles to transmit the best values, in addition to reinforcing the position of the Solheim Cup 2023, a historic international competition that recently received another fundamental accolade as declared an event of exceptional public interest by the Government of Spain.
It also happens that it is the first women’s golf event to receive this consideration as an event of exceptional public interest, a distinction that highlights the importance of this competition on the international scene.
The presidency of the Committee of Honor of the Solheim Cup 2023 by Her Majesty Queen Letizia is another reflection of the harmony of the main State institutions with all the entities involved in the organization and implementation of this important competition, that will undoubtedly become the ideal ambassador of the benefits of our country and, especially, of Andalusia and the Costa del Sol.
