The Country Club has one of the most prestigious golf facilities in Madrid and the national territory due to its design and its location so close to the center of the capital.
Its Black Route, designed by the architect D. Javier Arana, has hosted countless events on the European Circuit, nine times the Spanish Open, nine times the Madrid Open and has hosted the most important federation championships.
It is also necessary to highlight the dispute in the Club in 1965 of the Canada Cup, current World Cup, which made Spain the epicenter of world golf and which was an extraordinary boost for this sport in our country.
In the Spanish Open they have won such illustrious names as Severiano Ballesteros, who achieved his last individual victory at the Club in 1995; Jon Rahm (2019), Colin Montgomerie (1994), Sebastián Miguel (1960) or Padraig Harringotn (1996).
