The Empordà Challenge is a golf tournament on the Challenge Tour held at Empordà Golf on the Costa Brava near Girona, Spain.[1]

Together with Challenge Costa Brava, also hosted at Empordà Golf, the tournament served as a replacement for the China Swing with Hainan Open and Foshan Open, which was cancelled.[2][3]

In the inaugural tournament took the early clubhouse lead, after posting a final round of 62 (−9). Jesper Svensson joined Brun at −18, but a bogey-bogey finish sent him to −16, and gave the victory to Julien Brun who held his nerve and finished −18, a stroke ahead of Thomson.[4]
