48 THE GRAN CANARIA GOLF CLASSIC 2022
HE weather served up a wonderfully dry and sunny day for the golfers (only beginning to rain as the last golfer left the course) at the Northern Ireland Gran Canaria Golf Classic.
It was another glorious day of competitive golf,
with Martin Flynn taking the top prize of five nights half board accommodation for two in the luxury five- star Seaside Palm Beach. Situated alongside the sand dunes and beach of Maspalomas, this sophisticated hotel combines 70’s retro chic design with the ultimate luxury. Its renewed gastronomy is a point of reference and can be enjoyed on the ample terraces surrounded by the ;lush palm garden. Additionally, this prize includes Green Fees and Car Rental to explore the wonderful island. The Team Prize was won by the Traffick team. The
team will enjoy five-nights half board accommodation in the fantastic four-star Suite & Villas by Dunas in Maspalomas. Immersed in an oasis of native vegetation, where the sun shines every morning between the palm trees and fills the pools with warmth, this beautiful hotel is located close to a natural heaven, the Dunes of Maspalomas, in the middle of the unique Tony Gallardo Park. Additionally, this prize includes Green Fees and Car Rental to explore this wonderful island. Olwen McKinney won the Ladies prize which
includes five nights half board accommodation for two in the beautiful five star Salobre Hotel Resort & Serenity.
