The golfing challenge
Over 600,000 cacti and other desert plants grow progressively more dense and troubling the further your shot is off the fairway, culminating in the dreaded ‘spiked lies.’ So the course is both demanding and exhilarating, offering a variety of
challenges to test the skills of every player from beginner to professional.
Course designer Peter McEvoy says:
“We have created a course which really can be enjoyed by players of all different standards, we have kept the fairways generous and ensured that the less expert player can enjoy and improve his game whilst absorbing the awesome landscape and views that encompass The Indiana.”
“On the other hand, every hole has features which can be brought into play: the springs, watercourses, dry river beds, rock and cactus areas and bunkers are strategically located to examine the skills of golf's leading players when playing off the championship tees.”
“Allow me to take you on a virtual tour of the Indiana Golf Course.”
More about the Course Design Team
The quality of the course was endorsed when the English Golf Union and Welsh Ladies Golf Union chose Desert Springs as their Spanish home. The course also hosted the 2004 Spanish Amateur Open for the Royal Spanish Golf Federation and will be hosting the Open again in 2007.
