Why move earth when a golf hole should follow the natural contours? was the philosophy of Pepe Gancedo when he designed Torrequebrada. Not surprisingly the course is tortuous but the panoramic views and variety at each hole make up for the undulating terrain. As for natural hazards, there are plenty of trees and bushes, six holes are affected by water and there are numerous strategically placed bunkers. The 16th, a short par fourth, is a dogleg to the right with a downhill second shot towards an elevated green where the pin is barely visible. The wind can also influence your play at the home club of PGA European Tour professional Miguel Angel Jiménez. Opened in 1976 Torrequebrada has hosted many world class tournaments including the Spanish Open, and operating a liberal public golf policy it is very popular with visitors.
