Grenoble Charmeil
Golf Hôtel de Grenoble-Charmeil: This is a surprisingly flat course given its proximity to Grenoble, the Alps and the wooded hills that create such an impressive view from the course. But here you are actually in the flood plain of the River Isere and trees and water hazards will keep you occupied, rather than climbing any hills.
After the first four holes you will become acquainted with a rather pretty lake, which is circumnavigated via the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 13th and 14th holes - the drive at the 5th will potentially give you the most trouble. Water is your biggest obstacle to recording a good score; the light rough and light bunkering should not create too many problems.
The back-nine provides three par-3s and three par-5's; like the front it is a combination of lightly tree-lined holes and others in more open terrain. The course is well maintained, and a favourite stop-over for golfers travelling further south. Even for low handicappers it is no push-over, especially if there is a bit of wind blowing.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.

Grenoble Intl. (Bresson)
The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
