The Ryder Cup is returning back to Spain in 2031 after 34 years. The famous Stadium Course at Camiral in Costa Brava will host the 48th edition of this important golf team event.
Spain is now the third country in Europe to hold the Ryder Cup two times, following England and Scotland. The most recent Spanish edition happened in 1997 at Valderrama, with Seve Ballesteros in charge.
With great players like Sergio Garcia, Jose Maria Olazábal, and Jon Rahm making their mark in the Ryder Cup, Spain’s return means more than just coming back—it’s like coming home.

Camiral’s Crown Moment – Golf Meets Glory in Costa Brava
The Stadium Course at Camiral, widely revered as Europe’s premier golf destinations, will carry the weight of tradition and expectation. The last time Spain hosted this prestigious contest was in 1997 at Valderrama—where Seve Ballesteros, the heart and soul of Spanish golf, led Europe to a glorious win.
That moment still echoes across the continent. Now, Camiral will pick up the torch from Valderrama, stepping into the limelight with a promise of passion, prestige, and packed galleries.
The announcement also brings Spain shoulder to shoulder with the elite in Ryder Cup hosting history. “This decision not only honors Camiral’s world-class status but also salutes the enormous contribution Spain has made to Ryder Cup lore,” stated Guy Kinnings, European Tour Group CEO.

Spain has made a big impact. Spain has 11 players in the Ryder Cup, which is just behind England. The country has built a strong team of champions.
Sergio Garcia has 28.5 points from 10 games, making him the top scorer in the tournament’s history. With Jon Rahm and Rafa Cabrera Bello joining in, Spain is not just a place for the Ryder Cup—it becomes its heart.

Bigyan Samele’s Take
As a writer and golf sports journalist and enthusiast: This return to Spain isn’t just another tournament slot—it’s poetic. The echoes of Ballesteros at Valderrama, the rise of Rahm, and the resurgence of Spain’s golf culture all point toward one thing: destiny.
Camiral isn’t merely a venue; it’s the sequel Spanish golf has waited 34 years to script. Let the drama unfold.
