Marta Muñoz, results

For the first time in the championship’s history, since its inception in 1919, a final was contested with both players being Spanish. In this edition, between Marta Muñoz from Madrid and Adriana García from Barcelona, ​​the Madrid native emerged victorious.

On her way to the final, Marta Muñoz finished the qualifying round in 14th place before her five match play matches. Her opponents in the match play were Lottie Woodham, Sabrina Wong, Yoona Bae, Salomé Lumbaca, and Lisa Coetzer. Unlike the previous qualifying rounds, the final of this prestigious championship is played over 36 holes. The greatest anticipation arose after the first 18 holes, as the tie between the two Spanish players left everything to be decided with one round remaining. In this head-to-head match, the Barcelona native fell one hole short of extending the contest, finishing 3&2 against Muñoz.

Marta Muñoz’s recent Scottish triumph is complemented by the 2025 Catalan Cup and the 2025 Spanish U16 Championship runner-up title. Furthermore, the Madrid native helped her federation win the 2025 Spanish Armed Forces U16 Women’s Championship. Adriana García Terol’s record is equally impressive, including victories at the 2023 England U16 International, the 2025 Spanish Absolute and U16 Championships, and gold medals at the 2025 and 2026 European U18 Team Championships, in addition to runner-up finishes at the 2023 Spanish Junior and 2024 Spanish U16 Championships and a silver medal at the 2025 World U18 Women’s Team Championship. With these impressive achievements, the final was a challenge that Spain was sure to overcome.
