Golf in Lombardy
[Regions of Italy]
[Back to Lombardy]
Over half of Italy's golfers reside in Lombardy, so of course it boasts many fantastic courses. Here is a partial list:
- Golf Club Lombardy. Just outside Milan in the Royal Park at Monza. This world championship 27-hole course, site of many Italian Opens, has sloping greens with high, natural roughs.
- Villa D'Este Golf Club. Near Montorfano, this world-famous course has recently undergone extensive renovation. Host of 12 Italian Opens, the 18-hole course requires precise strokes; the ups and downs call for total concentration.
- Golf Club La Pineta. One of the most prestigious in Italy, this 18-hole course combines technical challenge and remarkable beauty. Home of the Stracciari Open International, its first 9 holes are hilly. The two slopes that edge the fairways make them seem much narrower than they actually are.
