Spain, the desire for golf
Spain is full of courses all along the coast and inland. Faced with such an embarrassment of riches, we might as well choose the most beautiful jewels. Courses that have to be deserved, and wasn't it at Valderrama for the 1997 Ryder Cup that Tiger Woods, as a beginner in the competition, trod and stumbled with the American team in front of the Spanish ardor? Will you have the nerves and blood hot enough for this country with sensations? The PGA Catalunya course was supposed to host the Tiger in 1997 but was completed too late. Ranked in the world's top 100, it holds some nice surprises as does Finca Cortesin, regularly in the top ten Spanish courses. The latter is delightfully hilly and very strategic. Its greens "worthy of Augusta", according to Sergio Garcia, ensure you a day of play without dead time in a Mediterranean setting with the sea in constant sight. The welcome is impeccable, worthy of the resort of which it is a part. The fresh towel on your face after 18 holes is the ultimate reward...
