Real Club Valderrama

Overview

Valderrama has been consistently ranked as number 1 in Continental Europe since the late 80’s and has been included in the Top 100 in the World since 1999. The Par 71 Championship Course measures 6356 meters from the professional tees. The fairways have been described by top pros and leading golf writers as the best in Europe, if not the world. It is not an easy course - nor was it intended to be. It is designed so as to call forth thought and precision for every shot. No more so than when Seve Ballesteros brilliantly captained his European side to a 14.5-13.5 win over the USA in 1997. Many matches were decided on Valderrama's famous closing holes - the treacherous par 5 17th, and the dogleg left par 4 18th. You will remember these holes with fondness when you tee it up at Valderrama on a Connoisseur Golf trip.
