I was lucky enough to spend some time working in the Lisbon area with one of our PerryGolf groups recently and they really enjoyed the trip. Lisbon is a fantastic, vibrant city full of character and has a friendly, relaxed atmosphere with some great bars and restaurants.

Ballyliffin’s Glashedy Links course is to receive an upgrade on the bunkering to the right of the 13th. The work is scheduled to be undertaken over two winters by the course’s own green staff (under the guidance of one the original architects, Pat Ruddy) and staff are keen to see the work reach completion by March of 2011. The aim is to fortify the course and improve the experience for golfers of all levels.

China has approximately 4 million golfers…yet only 400 clubs; but figures are constantly rising, especially now that golf is back as an Olympic Sport, with an unbelievable approximate annual growth rate of 50%. It’s predicted that by 2020, China will surpass America and have the world’s largest golfing population.

Palazzo Arzaga Hotel Spa & Golf Resort in Italy is located in the lovely countryside of Lake Garda and has been nominated in a number of categories for the World Travel Awards.
Palazzo Arzaga Hotel Spa & Golf Resort
The hotel boasts an 18 hole, Par 72 Championship Golf Course “Arzaga I”, which was designed by Jack Nicklaus II; while the 9-hole course Arzaga II, was designed by Gary Player. The courses are designed to fit in around the hilly landscape and I think you’ll find they are great courses for both beginners and professionals.

Having just watched Tin Cup for the umpteenth time, it got me to wondering which golf movie is most requested. Apparently a group of guys passing time over a few beers usually ask for something light-hearted such as Caddyshack, Happy Gilmore or The Water Boy. The Legend of Bagger Vance goes down well because it features Will Smith. True fans of the game prefer the biographies of great golfers, such as Stroke of Genius (Bobby Jones) or Follow the Sun (Ben Hogan). We all enjoyed The Greatest Game Ever Played, which tells the story of Francis Ouimet’s win at Brookline – a bit of a weepy for us girls this one! Most popular? Caddyshack or Tin Cup. Do you agree?
