Emma Villacieros Machimbarrena (1 January 1932 – 9 May 2018) was a Spanish golfer and sports leader, who served as the 9th president of the Royal Spanish Golf Federation, a position she held for over 20 years, from November 1988 to December 2008, and was subsequently named honorary president until her death. She is widely regarded as one of the most important figures in the development of golf in Spain, contributing decisively to its growth and normalization within Spain since it was during her mandate that Spanish golf experienced its second and most impressive 'boom', supported by an unprecedented increase in the number of courses and licenses, to the point of turning golf into a fashionable sport in Spain. For her contribution to the development of the sport throughout her life, she was awarded the Premios Nacionales del Deporte (Francisco Fernández Ochoa) in 2012.
