In the heart of Costa del Sol in Andalucía, Spain, lies the illustrious Finca Cortesin, a world-renowned golfing paradise. This golf course, previously playing host to three Volvo World Match Play Championships and consistently ranking among Spain's top five courses, is now set to make history as the host venue for the 2023 Solheim Cup.
Nestled in the charming town of Casares, Andalucia, Finca Cortesin spans 6,736 meters (7,367 yards) and boasts a challenging par-72 layout. The course is celebrated for its pristine fairways, immaculate greens, and captivating design, seamlessly blending with the stunning Mediterranean landscape.

Stacy Lewis and Suzann Pettersen leading the charge at the Solheim Cup 2023
The spotlight in 2023 falls not only on this extraordinary course but on the prestigious Solheim Cup itself. The Solheim Cup, a biennial team competition, brings together the finest women professional golfers from Europe and the United States. The event will take place from September 22 to 24 at the magnificent Finca Cortesin.
Excitement is building as Stacy Lewis will captain Team USA for the first time, while Suzann Pettersen, a celebrated European golf icon, will captain Team Europe. With these two accomplished leaders at the helm, the tournament promises a thrilling competition.
The 2023 Solheim Cup follows Europe's triumphant victory in 2021 with a score of 15 points to 13. The 2021 event marked a detour from the traditional even-numbered years for the Solheim Cup, aligning it with the Ryder Cup schedule after the 2020 Solheim Cup competition was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Solheim Cup schedule will return to normalcy with the next tournament set to be held in 2024.
