The Quellness Golf Resort Bad Griesbach, with five 18-hole courses, is split between two large areas to the north and south of the town of Bad Griesbach. To the south you will find the championship Beckenbauer course (a European Tour course) and its "little brother", the Porsche course. To the north of the town, and each with their own clubhouse, are the much revered Brunnwies layout, as well as the Uttlau and Lederbach courses. Here you will also find the resort's "Golfodrome," which is home to three 9-hole courses (Engled, Jagl & Pfeiffer), a 6-hole course and the resort's Golf Academy.
The Beckenbauer course at Quellness Golf Resort is one of Germany's top-rated championship courses, and a European Tour venue. The 80 hectare layout, arranged in two nine-hole loops, winds through the meadow landscape of the small river Rott.
This tree-lined and open parkland layout should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Plenty of golfing challenge and usually good upkeep contribute to the appeal of this well-crafted and pleasantly testing design. For lower handicappers, definitely the one to include on your play list if you are in the area.

The 18-hole Beckenbauer course designed by world-class golfer Bernhard Langer, is named after German football's legendary "Kaiser", Franz Beckenbauer. The course served as host venue for the Porsche European Open, a European Tour event, in 2015 and 2016. In 2017, the course was also the setting for the Paul Lawrie Matchplay, and from 2013 to 2015 it hosted European Challenge Tour events for three consecutive years.

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. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
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.
