Chapultepec
Club de Golf Chapultepec is one of Mexico's older courses, but certainly not the oldest (that honour goes to Puebla GC, founded in 1897). This private golf club does however enjoy the honour of having hosted the first seven Mexican Open championships.
Close to the heart of Mexico's capital city, this well-maintained and stylishly bunkered parkland layout occupies gently undulating terrain. You'll need to drive accurately from the tee onto the relatively tight tree-lined fairways.
Mexico City's elevation (over 2,200 m above sea level) should take care of some of the course's 7,200 yards ... if you dare to go from the tips. Well worth a visit, providing you can secure that all important member invitation. (More detailed description to follow in due course).
Private club - guests can only play if hosted by a member.
Non-metal spike facility.

Chapultepec has hosted several Mexican Open championship over the years, including 14 of the first 16 such championships between 1944 and 1960. In 2017 it also added a World Golf Championship event to its roll of honour.
Chevron Championship: the first women’s major championship of 2023 is played for the first time in Texas, having been uprooted from its home of 51 years at the Mission Hills Country Club, Rancho Mirage, California.
Italian Open: the 80th playing of this prestigious European event will see many 2023 Ryder Cup hopefuls build their “local knowledge” of the Marco Simone course in Rome. (May 4-7). Ryder Cup (Sept 29-Oct 1).
Jon Rahm: dedicated his emphatic Masters Tournament win to the late Seve Ballesteros. “Rahmbo’s” victory came on the day his fellow countryman and golfing inspiration would have turned 66 years of age.
Steve Stricker: four-time senior major championship winner, chases a fifth title as he defends at the 34th Regions Tradition (May 11-14), the first senior major of 2023.
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.
