India has that honour of being the first country after
Britain to develop golf as a sport. India has some of the oldest golf
courses and clubs in the world outside England. A large number of golf
courses in India designed by Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus offer the
golfers adequate challenge to meet with. In India, the major Golf courses
are at Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Coimbatore, Ooty,
Chennai, Kolkata, Pune, Hyderabad, Gulmarg and Srinagar. The Golf Courses
in Delhi and Jaipur are worth visiting and commended by the golf lovers
from all over the world.
These golf courses covered in the golf tours in India have 9, 12 or
18 holes for a symmetrical game. The USP of Indian golf courses is their
diversity depending on the place they belong to. The golf courses in
Delhi, Kashmir, Bangalore, Ooty etc are quite verdant and pleasant owing
to their vegetated landscapes. The other golf courses also have their
own distinct feature not possessed by any other golf course. The major
golf courses in India are:
Delhi Golf Club: Delhi Golf Club is perhaps the only Golf Club in the
world, dotted with the historical monuments. This course was originally
called the 'Lodhi Golf Course'. The Delhi Golf Club also organises professional
tournaments like the Indian Open, part of the prestigious Asian PGA circuit.
The club has the facility of bar & catering, a swimming pool and
recently a new pub and a health club has been added.
Classic Golf Resort: The Classic Golf Resort is the first South Asian signature
championship golf course designed by the great Jack 'Golden Bear' Nicklaus.
The resort is well sprawled in a 300-acre expanse, at the foothills of
the picturesque Aravalli hills. This golf course lies on the outskirts
of Delhi, off the Delhi - Jaipur highway, a 45 minutes drive from Delhi.
One can observe the strict adherence to the international quality standards
which makes the Classic Golf Resort a truly world class championship venue.
