Lignano
Situated between the Tagliamento River estuary and the Marano lagoon, the course at Golf Club Lignano is a Marco Croze design which hosted two consecutive editions of the Italian Ladies’ Open in 1993 and 1994, shortly after it first opened for play.
Fairways are routed across a coastal landscape close to the sandy beaches of the Adriatic shoreline, with prominent water hazards to negotiate at #4, #6 to #8 then #12 to #14 and large, sandy waste areas in play at the 9th and 15th.
The best hole on the card is also the most difficult: the 402-metre 13th gently doglegging right from the tee – with a pond to the right and four bunkers to the left of the fairway – then narrowing as it approaches the green.
The Servizitalia Open on the Alps Tour was also held here in 2012 and 2015.

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.
