Headquarters of the Spanish Golf Federation, this impressive golf facility is situated on reclaimed land close to the city centre, beside the Madrid ring road, with easy access for golfers.
There’s also a large driving range and practice area positioned between the two nines comprising the main 18-hole layout.
Holes on the outward half traverse along the slope of a hillside, slowly climbing up to a high point at the 6th before falling down to the pond-protected par three 9th.
The opening holes on the back nine also rise up to higher ground over the motorway before the downhill 15th brings play back to finish on the water-laden final three holes.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
