Santo Domingo
Santo Domingo Country Club is a private country club, open only to its members and their guests. Located in the western residential outskirts of bustling Santo Domingo, plenty of trees do a good job in screening out the suburban world beyond the course, creating a mainly tree-lined, occasionally more open, golfing oasis.
On this pleasant, Robert Trent Jones designed, parkland layout, water hazards are infrequent, but good bunkering will be encountered around the greens and along the fairways.
The mix of dog-legging and straight holes, generally well separated by the lines of trees, will ensure all your shot-making repertoire is tested. Some attractive views can be enjoyed from the course's higher elevations.
Santo Domingo CC is a private club. Guests may only play if hosted by a member.

Santo Domingo, or in full, Santo Domingo de Guzmán, is the capital and largest city in the Dominican Republic, with a population estimated at about 2.5 million.
Founded by Christopher Columbus in 1492, it is the oldest continuously inhabited European settlement in the Americas, and was the first seat of Spanish colonial rule in the New World. Originally known as La Isabela, after Queen Isabella of Spain, it was later renamed Santo Domingo, in honour of Saint Dominic.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy.

Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
