Saint Donat
One of half a dozen French golf projects that Robert Trent Jones II has been involved in down the years, Saint Donat is a tree-lined parkland course that’s laid out over undulating terrain in two returning 9-hole circuits.
Water threatens at a number of holes and good bunkering and large putting surfaces go a long way to protect the overall par of 71. The back nine is quite a bit hillier than the outward half and golfers have to contend with several blind drives on these holes.
Although it’s not quite in the same bracket as the private Trent Jones Snr course (Prince de Provence) that lies an hour’s drive to the southwest at Vidauban, the Saint Donat layout certainly holds its own in the Cannes area amongst courses like Robert von Hagge’s Royal Mougins and Cabel Robinson’s Grande Bastide.
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.
