The Old Course - Vilamoura |
|
Vilamoura Old Course was inaugurated in 1969. It is laid over and around gentle
sloping hills with tree lined fairways, and poses quite a stern test. Host to
the Portuguese Open (1970, 1979,) a golfer playing well will find it delightful.
* Rated Number 2 in Portugal by Golf Digest Magazine (USA), April 2005, October 2003 Often described as the Grande Dame of Algarve courses, it meanders throughout impressive pinetrees - the principal hazard - over gently undulating natural terrain. Although it opened in 1969, the course was completely renovated and modernised 27 years later although no major changes were made to the magnificent layout.
