Water comes into play on several holes, most notably at the par three 4th, which plays to a pond-protected green, and on the back nine at holes 14 and 15, where another pond separates the two fairways.
Long punishing two-shot holes characterize the main challenge here, where the only par four measuring under 370 yards from the back tees arrives late in the round at the slightly right doglegged 17th hole.
This golfing facility was built as the HQ for the newly created Azerbaijan Golf Federation and the course, which measures 7,011 yards, staged the Azerbaijan Golf Challenge Open (a new event on the European Challenge Tour) in July 2014, which Germany’s Moritz Lampert won.
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.
