It has two distinct parts. The first, from holes 1 to 9, is a typical English parkland with unsophisticated vegetation and no lakes, extending over gentle hills and watercourses, easy to overcome on foot even on hot summer days. The fairways have been adapted to the terrain with only two steep slopes, those of holes 1 and 5. Its difficulty lies in the large number of outs and its fast and large greens.    <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"null\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-8091\" src=\"https:\/\/andaluciagolf.holaincompany.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/images_Actual2018_golf-wtgmalaga2017-3-2546-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"618\" height=\"915\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andaluciagolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/images_Actual2018_golf-wtgmalaga2017-3-2546-1.jpg 854w, https:\/\/andaluciagolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/images_Actual2018_golf-wtgmalaga2017-3-2546-1-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/andaluciagolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/images_Actual2018_golf-wtgmalaga2017-3-2546-1-691x1024.jpg 691w, https:\/\/andaluciagolf.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/images_Actual2018_golf-wtgmalaga2017-3-2546-1-768x1138.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">On the second nine holes, earth was moved to elevate the greens and diversify the fairways. This course is made difficult by water areas that influence holes 10, 11, 14, 16 and 17, as well as by the reading of the greens, due to their speed and difficult to execute slopes. The entire course has a variety of trees, both native and newly planted, and several lakes. One of the most characteristic holes is hole 6 (354 meters), where it is very easy to reach from two, but which has an elevated green with diabolical drops.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Ideal for large tournaments, the Real Guadalhorce Club de Golf is a long course where low and medium level amateurs can also enjoy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"null\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><span color=\"#b22222\" style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"> <\/span><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>ANDALUCIA GOLF CHALLENGE SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>May 5 &#8211; Guadalhorce<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>May 20 &#8211; San Roque Old Course<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>July 2 and 3 &#8211; RCG Sotogrande<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>July 28 &#8211; La Reserva de Sotogrande<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>11 August &#8211; San Roque New Course<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>August 18 &#8211; Flamingos<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>August 25 &#8211; Roman Valley<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>September &#8211; Grand Final on field and date to be determined<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Malaga&#8217;s Real Club de Golf Guadalhorce will be the first stage of the Andaluc\u00eda Golf Challenge 2018 Circuit Destination &#8216;La Romana Golf Club Bah\u00eda Pr\u00edncipe&#8217; in Dominican Republic.
