Home to the Volvo Masters (1988-96 and 2002-2008), the Ryder Cup (1997), the World Golf Championships (1999-2000), the Andalucía Masters (2010-2011) and Open de España (2016). - Valderrama surpasses its reputation as Europe's number one course.
Designed by Robert Trent Jones and lovingly maintained by founder and original owner Jaime Ortiz Patiño for many years, this is one of the continent's toughest challenges. The 4th hole, a par-5 of spectacular beauty, ends on a raised green next to a cascade of water meandering to a greenside lake. The famous par-5 17th features a green with bunkers at the back, and slopes down to an emerald lake. It is a favourite vantage point for spectators - and a bête noire for top championship players.
Address: Avda. de Los Cortijos, s/n. 11310 Sotogrande, San Roque, Cádiz.
Directions: from both Marbella or Algeciras, turn off the N-340 at km. 133 and take the exit marked Sotogrande-Guadiaro-Castellar. Map
