Tranlate this title The women’s Masters 2026 goes to Colombia in spanish

The Augusta National Women’s Amateur, considered the women’s Masters, where the world’s best amateur golfers compete, continues to have a strong Spanish presence. Nineteen-year-old Colombian María José Marín succeeded Carla Bernat as the winner on the world’s biggest golf stage. Madrid native Andrea Revuelta finished second, four strokes behind.

Marín, in her fourth appearance at the prestigious tournament, triumphed with a score of 14 under par. After two rounds at local clubs, the tournament concluded at the club where the biggest names in men’s golf will compete for the green jacket next Thursday. There, both Marín and Bernat carded 68s, the best scores of the day, along with three other golfers, including world number one Kiara Romero, who finished fifth. (Results)

The winner’s performance was a radical departure from that of Asterisk Talley, the leader after the first two days and last year’s runner-up, who faltered from Amen Corner onward. After sending two balls into the water on the small, windy par-3 12th hole, the young American, not yet 18, from the ’09 generation, as they say now, made another bogey on the par-5 15th hole, the one by the lake, and on the 16th, the final par-3, she hit another ball into the water and made a double bogey.

Talley had reached the 9th hole with a one-stroke lead over Marín, who had played a great round at the National, with four birdies on the front nine, on such critical sections as the 5th and 7th, even though the tees are much further forward than in the men’s tournament. Faced with Marín’s collapse, the Colombian played the back nine with composure. Two more birdies and a bogey on the final par 5 secured her the victory.

Revuelta, 19, started with a bogey but immediately made amends with a birdie on the par 5 (hole 2), the first of six birdies that day. Her momentum shifted to Amen Corner. After a bogey on the 10th, she strung together three birdies on the 11th, 12th (almost a hole-in-one), and 13th. This propelled her into second place, a position she held until the end. The new world number 2, with her coach Alejandro Ramos in her bag, enjoyed an experience that will forever be part of Spanish golf history.

«I played all 18 holes with chills, it’s incredible, I’m speechless. I’m so proud of myself and everything I did to get here, to this tournament. I’m so happy I enjoyed the round, with its ups and downs. I made three birdies at Amen Corner and almost holed it out on the 12th. When I saw the ball coming off the tee, I said: it’s going in, it’s going in, I can’t believe it. And it went out over the edge. It would have been so beautiful,» said the Stanford University student.

Paula Martín, with Alejandro Larrazábal—who played in the Masters as an amateur and carried José María Olazábal’s bag in two editions—finished ninth. «It’s incredible to be here,» said the student, who also trained with Tiger Woods and is a brand ambassador for his company, Andrea. «Last year I came to gain experience, and that has helped me grow tremendously. It’s an honor to be the captain of the British Amateur, and it shows me that I can be at the top sometime. This is my third year, and I’m thrilled to be here. Alejandro, who is also my coach, and I have a great understanding, and it’s very important to have someone like him in the bag.» This season she will play in three majors.
