Belek - National Golf Club Championship Course

By admin • Mar 23rd, 2009 • Category: Golf Courses in Turkey

Described as “Woburn With Sunshine” this tree-lined tight course does bear a passing resemblance to that top English course. Voted by Golf World as 39th best course in Europe, it was designed by the Irish duo of David Feherty and David Jones. Transforming heavily timbered swamp land into a rolling course where they drained the water into lakes, which influence six holes and retained most of the characteristic pine and eucalyptus trees.

With the back drop of the Toros mountains the 18 hole Championship Course at 6232 meters, par 72 is a fantastic test of golf. From the very long par 5 opener, followed by a par 3

to an island green Through trees and valleys to the 18th which demands an inch- perfect tee shot before an approach over water to a green in front of the often packed clubhouse terrace restaurant.
