Quinta Do Lago South

Designed by American William Mitchell, Quinta do Lago South was opened in 1974. Since 1976 the course has been used some eight times for the “Portuguese Open Championship”, most recently in 2001. Quinta do Lago South has also hosted many large professional and amateur championships.

 

This course offers you the possibility to hit the greens in regulation from several approaches. The good news is that each hole does have one easy route and the player who sees this, and has the skill to follow the designer's intention, can produce sub-par figures!

 

Most definitely favouring the long hitter, the course also requires the player identify the best strategic route in order to score well. Although both anti-clockwise loops, the first nine favours a draw, while the second favours a fade from the tee. Holes 3, 15 and 17 features lakes, which add to the scenery but more importantly, must be negotiated. Holes 8, 10, 15 and 18 are the most testing for the scratch player while holes 2, 3, 5, 12, 13 and 17 offer the best possibilities of birdies. An enjoyable experience for players of all standards.
