The Andalucía Costa del Sol Match Play 9 is a golf tournament on the Challenge Tour, played in Spain. It is a mixed stroke-play and match-play event, broadly similar to the World Super 6 Perth, the main difference being that the match-play matches are over 9 holes rather than 6. Aaron Rai won the inaugural tournament, beating Gavin Moynihan in the final.
The event starts with 36 hole of stroke play over two days. The leading 32 players qualify for the match play stage. There is a sudden-death playoff for those tying for 32nd place. Seedings are based on a countback system, so that where players are equal, those having the better second round are seeded higher. There are then five match play rounds, two on the third day and three on the final day, all matches being over 9 holes with a sudden-death playoff if required. There are a number of other matches for the minor places.
