Costa Esmeralda
The seaside resort of Costa Esmeralda is located on the Atlantic shore two hundred kilometres to the southeast of downtown Buenos Aires. The new millennium resort course at Costa Esmeralda Golf & Links is a coastal layout which stretches beyond 7,000 yards from the tips.
Starting and finishing with a par five, the holes are arranged as two returning nines, playing to a par of 72 (35 out then 37 in), with the longer, tree-lined inward half measuring over 500 yards longer than the more open outward half.
Water hazards feature on several occasions, most notably on holes 6 and 8 which play around the same irrigation lake and on holes 15 and 16 which are routed on opposite sides of the same body of water.
Other highlight holes include the right doglegging par four 3rd (rated stroke index 3) and the tough par five finishing hole which bends gently left off the tee towards the home green with out of bounds running the length of the fairway on the left side.
World Top 100 Golf Courses
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.
