Cherokee Valley Golf Club

3-star: Good course – an enjoyable test for your game.

Est. 1996

Located just outside Memphis, across the border in Mississippi, Cherokee Valley Golf Club provides for a pleasantly varied round of golf. A total of 11 lakes and 63 bunkers may at first sound intimidating, but wide fairways and not overly penal rough on the hole-lining mounds, ensures a fair degree of forgiveness for wayward shots.

The good-width fairways meander across pleasantly rolling terrain, with a few sections occupying flatter ground. The mix of tree-lined and open parkland holes are occasionally flanked by water, most threateningly on the first five holes of the back-nine. The par-5 10th, with water skirting the right-side of the fairway from tee-to-green and a cluster of menacing bunkers on the left, makes for a testing start to the back-nine loop.

Water doesn't feature on the par-4 9th and 18th holes, but both holes, which sit side-by-side, demand a steady climb back up to the clubhouse. Housing occasionally makes its presence felt, more so on the back-nine, but usually located far enough back to be well out of harm's way.

Tournaments

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.
