ABOUT

The Solheim Cup is one of the most prestigious events in women’s golf, and in 2023, it was hosted in Spain for the first time at Finca Cortesin, widely regarded as the country’s finest golf course. Maverick Social partnered with Finca Cortesin to create content that reflected both the scale of the Solheim Cup and the sophistication of the venue. Our team was on-site from Tuesday to Sunday, producing dynamic and elegant video content that captured the atmosphere, emotion, and beauty of the week.

With a lean three-person crew, we focused on precision, agility, and storytelling. Pre-event, we conducted aerial drone filming to showcase the stunning setting of the Costa del Sol and the course’s architectural beauty. Throughout the week, we delivered ten bespoke pieces of content highlighting behind-the-scenes preparation, team arrivals, course beauty, crowd energy, and the defining moments of the tournament. All content was edited on-site for rapid turnaround and real-time delivery.
