The iconic layout has hosted 23 world class golf events.
\nThe Real Club Valderrama will stage the Andaluc\u00eda Valderrama Masters from October 19-22, a European Tour event sponsored by the Autonomous Government of Andalusia and hosted by the Sergio Garc\u00eda Foundation. Valderrama is heading into the final stage of an ambitious modernization and upgrading plan, which will consolidate the course among the best in the world. An extremely meticulous project, which began in 2013 and has carried out a significant investment.<\/p>\n

The last phase of the renovation and upgrading project at the legendary Valderrama golf course, host to 23 international events and the world\u2019s top players, is coming along smoothly according to Javier Reviriego, the Club\u2019s General Manager: \u201cLast February work was successfully completed on the front nine. Next winter the project will be carried out on the back nine, concluding a significant investment plan that has been carried out with the firm proposal of its current Board to consolidate itself as the best in Europe for many years.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmong the work carried out on the front nine, what stands out is the renovation of all the greens with a new variety of \u201cBent Grass Agrostis T1\u201d, and they have all been restored to their original size. Furthermore, the sand base has been improved and some drains have been repaired under the guidance of the world-famous golf architect, Kyle Philips.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe approaches to the greens have also been renovated with new silica sand added to the base in order to improve playing conditions. The rough areas have been treated to eliminate weeds, and the famous cork oaks have also been pruned, thus allowing for more light to enter and movement of air, which improves the health of the plant.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe landscaping has been improved in the areas adjacent to the paths; as for the bunkers, several drains have been changed in order to boost playability for the golfers.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the major items of the investment plan has undoubtedly been the new irrigation system. One of the most advanced in the world and has allowed not only to present the golf course in better conditions, it has also brought a significant saving of water resources thanks to the optimization software.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the conclusion of this phase, all that remains is to carry out the same work on the back nine in order to conclude a plan with which Valderrama will substantially improve the level of excellence for which is known in the whole world\u201d, concludes Reviriego.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
