<\/a>The par-three third is one of many attractive holes at DFL.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\nThe DFL Golf Resort for me is the creme of the crop when it comes to golf in Delhi and it probably compares favorably with any course in India. \u00a0Built from a rugged featureless site, the Arnold Palmer Design organization fashioned a tropical oasis that is not only quite photogenic, but a complete test of golf as well. \u00a0The trees that now guard the narrow fairways have matured nicely giving no hint that the course was only opened in 2000 as part of a massive high-rise residential complex that surrounds the property.<\/p>\n
This exquisitely manicured layout features lots of water that can comes into play often and is punctuated by many large bright white bunkers. \u00a0The green sites are not overly difficult provided you keep the ball below the hole and there are enough elevation changes to make the layout quite interesting. \u00a0Perhaps the best compliment I could pay DFL is that I feel that it has no weak holes and the par-fives offer the best chance for scoring. \u00a0The set of par-fours are particularly good and feature some short drive-and-pitch varieties along with some stout long tight ones. \u00a0If you tend to spray the ball, the course will become intimidating though otherwise it is an eminently playable test.<\/p>\n If you play just one golf course in Delhi, it has got to be DFL. \u00a0The facility is first-class and boasts a magnificent practice area and learning facility. \u00a0The layout has successfully hosted professional tour events and when they let the Bermuda rough grow and firm up the course, it is of championship caliber.\u00a0 And if that wasn’t enough, the course is lighted so it can be comfortably played at night!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fagan Rating: \u00a0A-. <\/strong>DFL certainly has to be one of the best inland courses in India and perhaps beyond – especially located in a densely populated urban area. \u00a0I certainly consider it a personal favorite of mine.<\/p>\n<\/a>DFL requires an accurate driving game as evidenced by the par-five 6th hole.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/a>The gorgeous tenth hole tee shot.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/a>The par-three 16th is part of a spectacular finish at DFL.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
