Did you know?

Royal GC San Sebastian is the home club of Spanish golfing legend José María Olazábal. It is also the first golf club to be established in the Basque Country, the third oldest in Spain and one of the founding members of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation.

King Alfonso XIII conferred the Royal prefix on San Sebastian GC in (it is thought) 1929. By royal prerogative, at least 18 Spanish golf clubs use the "Royal" title, including: Bendinat, El Prat, Guadalmina, La Herreria, Las Brisas, Las Palmas, Malaga, Neguri, New San Sebastian (Basozabal), Pedrena, Puerta de Hierro, R.A.C.E. (Jarama), San Sebastian, Seville, Sociedad Hipica Espanola, Sotogrande, Tenerife and Valderrama.

At least two other clubs once carried the Royal title: Royal Menorca (now closed) and Royal Deportivo Las Lomas-El Bosque, now called GC Lomas-Bosque.
