The Gary Player Course, an 18-hole, Par-72 course spanning 7654 yards from the Gold tees, showcases a design featuring two expansive lakes, significant land formations, sprawling undulating greens and distinctive style bunkering. Strategic prowess is essential in navigating this course, which offers diverse challenges depending on the tees chosen, offering six options: Gold, Black, Blue, White, Red and Yellow. Notably, the Gary Player Course has been the esteemed venue for four editions of the Hero Indian Open as well as six editions of the Hero Women’s Indian Open (a Ladies European Tour event) and numerous prestigious corporate golf events.
