Top Golfers for the Volvo World Match Play

The highlights are undoubtedly: Sergio García, Camilo Villegas, Steve Stricker, Retief Goosen and Sean O ‘ Hair. We will certainly have a great roster of players that will enjoy our golf course, hotel and hopefully the good weather. For more info regarding the tournament visit:

What They Say….

Designed by World famous golf course architect Mr. Cabell Robinson, Finca Cortesín layout is simply spectacular. The main features are the length of the course (6,808 mts.) and the great variety of its natural vegetation which includes olive trees and corks. The 18 holes are unique, since every hole is completely different from each other making the course much more enjoyable.

Technically speaking, it is important to emphasize the following features of the course: it has very wide fairways (up to 50 mts.), the bunkers are beautifully shaped and filled with white marble sand, and it also has high quality tee boxes (every hole has several tee platforms so the player finds them always in perfect shape). But without doubt, the greens are one of Finca Cortesín jewels, all built with gentle undulations and with the possibility of being very fast and challenging.

What We Say…..

Finca Cortesin is the rising star of the Costa’s new generation of courses. It will soon be catapulted onto the world stage with the hosting in 2009-2012 of the revamped Volvo World Masters Match Play Championship. The tiger will be prowling!

Finca Cortesin had a show start while the course bedded in. It is however well a truly now a great course particularly for those who like them long. Off the yellow tees it’s a good challenge and off the whites it requires distance and accuracy. A couple of par 3′s will require heavy metal into a wind! This club is also setting the standard in terms of service. They do all the little things right and you will come away with the feeling that you will return soon. The only slight negative is that the terrain is a tad exposed but for most of the year it’s a warm wind that blows.
