XIVCampeonato Latinoamericano (Oct 22)
October 9th to 14th 2022
The proposal
By country, teams or individually, you are the protagonist
Since 2006, with the arrival of Golf Channel Latin America, we have carried out this unprecedented international competitive experience, which gives viewers in the region the possibility of living a unique experience and starring on the screen through television coverage. Since then it has been positioning itself as an aspirational event for players, but also for Caribbean Resorts, which make significant efforts to host it.
In the recent years, with the arrival of Wegolf as an exclusive agency, and the great support of some regional federations (such as the AAG in Argentina, or the Paulista Federation in Brazil), the Championship has experienced significant growth, exhausting its latest editions, and Consolidating itself as THE EVENT of which every golfer - who enjoys the competition - wishes to participate. In 2019 (in Tulum, Mexico), more than 200 people and amateur golfers from 12 countries competed for the Nations Cup, in teams of friends representing their clubs, or measured individually hand in hand with the best on the continent.

The Golf

Iberostar Playa Paraiso
This PB Dye design is beautifully carved within the Mayan jungle; it features a hilly terrain with dramatic elevation changes and untraditional hazards like a rock riverbed. With its narrow fairways and undulating greens bordered by deep bunkers, the golf course is considered one of Dye's toughest designs. It hosted Golf Channel’s Big Break and the 2015 Latin America Championship (aka. Campeonato Latinoamericano).
