Marianske Lazne Golf Club
The Marianske Lazne Golf Club (or Royal
Golf Club Marianske Lanze) course may serve as
an example of Scottish and Irish golfing architecture from
the end of the 19th century. The course was built under
the governance of Scottish professional Duig. It was opened
in 1905. Therefore it is the oldest course in Czech
Republic.
The course forms a clearly bounded area. Only holes No.2
and 3 go out of the compact course boundaries. They were
built in 1978 to replace the non-regular old ones. The
greens are relatively small (but well protected by bunkers),
especially when compared with newly built courses. Most
of the course lies on a plain terrain. It seems to be easy
at first sight. However, players find many hazards and
places demanding an accurate and technical play.
It is surrounded by a pine forest so that even on very
hot days, it is a fine place to be. The surrounding picturesque
landscape is natural, not harmed by any construction or
buildings. The air is full of oxygen and saturated with
ozone, so that it is a real cure for your lungs.
With its "Indian Summer" and beautifully coloured
leaves, autumn will conjure up an idea of a golfer`s paradise.
The opening of Marianske Lazne Golf Course was
conducted by His Majesty King Edward VII on August 21st,
1905. He solemnly cut the inaugural ribbon, opening the
new golf course after which he signed his name in the memorial
book of the course with a gold pen to become the first
foundation member of the Marianske Lazne Golf Club.
The golf club at Marianske Lazne is the only golf course
in Central Europe with such a distinguished past. The King
of England loved visiting Marianske Lazne and made a total
of 10 trips to the golf course, the last was in 1909. |
