Venue

Club de Campo Mediterráneo

Comunitat Valenciana, Spain

The Club de Campo del Mediterráneo is an 18-hole golf course designed by Ramón Espinosa, opened in 1978. Located near Borriol, in the hills of Castellón, about 80 km north of Valencia, the course features a variety of trees like olive trees, pine trees and carob trees. The 4th hole, which is 530 metres long, features an enormous carob tree known as 'La Mare de Déu' (Mother of God) and is a tough obstacle to overcome to reach the green. The subtly placed hazards make it tougher than you might think at first sight, although not to the point of scaring off the lesser players, with fairway and green-side bunkers cleverly located and visible enough to help your game tactics. Small ponds are in play on seven holes, completing a highly varied panoply of hazards. The greens, prepared at US Tour speeds, are high-quality putting surfaces which are tough to read and require an excellent touch. The golf course was the venue for the former European Tour event, the Castelló Masters Costa Azahar. The inaugural tournament, held in October 2008, was won by home favourite Sergio García, whose father is also the club professional. The course is the home course of the famous golfer Sergio Garcia.
