Sotogrande Golf Course Spain
18 holes 6298 metres Par 72.
Location:- Costa del Sol
Sotogrande Golf Course was inaugurated in 1964, and like the course
at Valderrama, it too was designed by Robert Trent Jones.
Situated in Sotogrande, Its most outstanding feature is its natural
beauty with views out over the sea.
The variety of vegetation gives this course a very special feeling,
as it is covered by cork trees, pines and eucalyptus which apart
from adding beauty to the course can make for quite a tricky round of golf.
The main hazards on the course, apart from the trees, are the big
lakes, where the water will significantly complicate the game, and
makes this an extremely entertaining round.
Because of the virtual absence of rough, the course enables long-hitters
to open their shoulders with no worries other than avoiding the
pre mentioned water hazards, concentrated over the last few holes.
The greens are huge, very undulating and often murderous for the scorecard.
One of the best in Europe this course is always a pleasure to
play. Imported Bermuda grass ensures lush fairways, and the lack
of rough add to the enjoyment of this wonderful golf course. |
