Golf Courses On This tour
Troia Golf Resort
Designed by the North American golf architect Robert Trent Jones Senior, TROIA GOLF was elected in 2011 by Rolex as one of the best golf courses in the world, and is listed in The Rolex World’s Top 1,000 Golf Courses guide. Also, in 2019, the magazine Golf World rated TROIA GOLF the 8th top golf course of the whole of Continental Europe.
Robert Trent Jones Senior selected hole 3 of Troia’s golf course as one of the best he has ever designed and included it in his list of ideal 18-hole courses.
There are two holes worth mentioning in particular – no. 3 and no. 18:
Hole 3, a par 4 that fits perfectly in the landscape with a magnificent sea view, was considered by Robert Trent Jones Senior one of the best he has ever designed, and he included it in his ideal 18-hole golf course.
Hole 18 is a par 5 left dog-leg, with an elevated green and protected by three front bunkers.

Troia golf course is a major challenge to any golfer. The principal obstacle of Troia Golf Course is sand which borders the whole course, where pine trees and wild plants are also found in abundance.
All this might give the idea of an almost impossible golf course. Nonetheless, when at the tee, the fairways seem to be wide and do not show many signs of danger. Only later does one understand that the real challenge of the Troia golf course is to arrive at the greens in such a way that a respectable score can be obtained.
