As she prepares for her first season on the LPGA Tour, Mimi Rhodes returns to the special place that helped hone her game, Sotogrande, to prepare for the next exciting milestone in her career.
Fresh from the 2025 season on the Ladies European Tour, Rhodes enters this new chapter firmly established among Europe’s elite golfers and as she heads towards the most competitive women’s tour in the world.
Competing on the Ladies European Tour, she earned three wins, was awarded Rookie of the Year, and finished second on the Order of Merit, with a performance that paved the way for her successful passage through the LPGA Q-Series and onto the LPGA Tour.
GROWING UP IN SPAIN
“Coming back to Sotogrande, SA at this point in my career feels incredibly special.
Long before graduation and international recognition, Sotogrande was the place where Mimi grew up, found her sense of home, and spent the most formative years of her life.
Today, as he reaches the most exciting stage of his professional career, those early years at Sotogrande are still deeply woven into the incredible player he has become.
As the official tourism ambassador of Sotogrande, Rhodes continues to return regularly to the area to train and continue to prepare at The Alto Club and the new Golf Academy, both part of the SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel.
Together, these facilities provide an effective training base for professional golfers, with Toptracer technology providing accurate feedback on ball flight and shot data to support focused, repeatable practice.
Combining elite training with a strong emphasis on health, recovery and balance, Sotogrande provides an environment that supports continued excellence at the highest level of the game.
Reflecting on his journey, Rhodes added: “Sotogrande has always felt like home to me.
To be able to come back now, and prepare here to move to the LPGA Tour, is incredibly special. It’s a place that gives me everything I need to do, but also to reorganize and stay grounded.”
Rita Jordao, Marketing Director at Sotogrande SA, commented: “We are very proud to see Mimi’s journey come full circle to Sotogrande.
His personal connection to heritage makes this relationship incredibly special to us. Mimi embodies the spirit and values of Sotogrande, and we are honored to support her as she enters an exciting new chapter on the international stage. “
