Las Praderas de Luján
Las Praderas de Luján is far more than just a golf club. Las Praderas de Luján was created in 1977 by a group of entrepreneurs whose vision was to develop a sporting community. Today the club is spread out across a massive 250-hectare site which includes football pitches, polo grounds, tennis courts, hockey pitches and even an Olympic-sized swimming pool. But the centrepiece is the Club de Campos de Golf Las Praderas de Luján.
With 27 holes in three loops of nine designed in an American-style by Emilio Serra, Las Praderas de Luján is an impressive facility. Wide fairways, generous greens and strategic bunkering are key features of all three loops, named: Betulas, Cañada and Luján. The Betulas nine measures a massive 3,612 metres from the championship tees and is significantly longer than the other two loops that measure a more modest but healthy 3,400 plus metres from the tips.
Playing to handicap on any of the three nines at Las Praderas de Luján will be a serious challenge, especially when the prevailing southwesterly winds whip across the adjacent meadowlands.
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.
