Royal Keerbergen
Royal Keerbergen Golf Club: Laid out on flat terrain, this mainly wooded and compact course has many challenging and interesting holes. Three of the six par-3s require a testing carry over water, while many drives will need to be threaded through the avenues of trees that line the fairways. Perhaps the tightest of them all being the tee-shot at the good-length par-4 3rd.
Pick of the holes: the best hole on the course is arguably the lakeside par-4 18th, which invites you to take on as much of the lake as you dare with your tee-shot.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: 35.
Soft spikes only. Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire.

According to Belgian practice, and having passed the age of 50, Keerbergen was able to confer on itself "Royal" status. The logical conclusion of this strange practice, is that all golf clubs in Belgium will eventually become self-declared "Royals". One can only imagine this devalues the status of the original ten "Royal" clubs, that were actually played on by the Belgian royal family in the early 1900s.
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.
