The European Tour heads back to Europe after its Eastern sojourn for the Open De España and back to the Real Club de Golf El Prat, which last hosted this event back in 2011.
Situated beside the airport to the south of Barcelona city centre and designed by Javier Arana, the Real Club de Golf El Prat was opened for play in 1954. When Barcelona was awarded the 1992 Olympics a new terminal was built which extended the airport and a new site was found to host the club which now sits between Terrassa and Sabadell.
Greg Norman’s design team were commissioned to create two 18-hole layouts and a 9-hole practice course. Measuring 7,000 yards from the back tees the Open course has wide fairways with some having some dramatic elevations changes. The greens have been constructed with tricky run-off areas and although they are quite large they do have a lot of subtle breaks and complexes in them.
