Situated close to the border with Germany, within the famous West Bohemian spa triangle of Karlovy Vary, Marianske Lazne and Frantiskovy Lazne, the 18-hole layout at the Golf Resort Frantiskovy Lazne is a new millennium co-design from Heinz Fehring and Peter Walker that first opened its doors to visitors in 2003.
Fairways are routed through dense woodland comprised of mature pine, spruce and birch trees, with wetland areas and ponds also coming into play from time to time. Holes tie into the landscape so well that golfers playing here for the first time might think it’s one of the nation’s oldest courses, not one of its newcomers.
Measuring 6,561 metres from the back tees, the layout plays to a par of 72, featuring a handful of five par fives on the scorecard. The final couple of three-shot holes are played back-to-back, starting at the 15th, with the 544-metre double doglegged 16th considered as the signature hole on the course.
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.
