Garcia going for yet more gain in Spain
The 31-year-old lifted the Castello Masters by 11 shots on his home course last October and followed that with a one-stroke victory over Miguel Angel Jimenez in the Andalucia Masters at Valderrama a week later.
Finca Cortesin, near Marbella, is again the venue for the Match Play and the other latest additions to the 24-man field are 2010 US Open champion Graeme McDowell, South Africans Branden Grace and Charl Schwartzel, American Brandt Snedeker, Australian John Senden and Colombian Camilo Villegas.
