| In Volume 2 of The Confidential Guide to Golf Courses by Tom Doak, Ran Morrissett, Masa Nishijima and Darius Oliver, the authors have this to say about the course: "A well-respected private suburban club in Buenos Aires, Olivos carries a superficial resemblance to the classic courses of the British heathland, but without any of the architectural sophistication. The par threes are pretty good and most of the greens and surrounding bunkers are interesting, but… some sensitive construction work combined with tree removal could do wonders for this course." |
Olivos Golf Club is one of the more traditional and recognised golf clubs in Argentina and the Blanca & Colorada (White & Red) nines comprise of the premier eighteen at this 27-hole facility. It was shortlisted by the American PGA to host the World Cup in 2000. Though Olivos was not chosen, it was highly praised by the foreign visitors. It is an English style course with smooth but long slopes. It has big and fast greens with notorious movement, which enhance the difficulty level.
Championships: World Amateur Championship, Los Andes Cup, Argentine Open, Argentine Amateur Championship, National Stroke Play Championship, Argentine Masters Tournament.
In 2010 Olivos Golf Club co-hosted the World Amateur Championship with Buenos Aires Golf Club. France won the event by four strokes from team Denmark.
Words adapted from WeGolf Argentina
Es una de las canchas más tradicionales y reconocidas del país. Cuando los expertos de la PGA de Estados Unidos realizaron un relevamiento de canchas para la disputa de la Copa del Mundo en el año 2000 en la Argentina, Olivos Golf Club fue una de las canchas evaluadas en su momento. Mas allá de no haber sido elegida se llevo grandes elogios de los visitantes extranjeros. Es una cancha de estilo ingles que se extiende sobre un terreno con suaves pero prolongadas pendientes. Tiene grandes y veloces greens y con mucho movimiento lo que los hace un poco más difíciles.
Campeonatos disputados: Campeonato Mundial de Aficionados, Campeonato Sudamericano de Aficionados (Copa Los Andes), Abierto de la Republica, Campeonato Argentino de Aficionados, Campeonato Nacional por Golpes, Torneo de Maestros.
En el 2010 será sede del Campeonato Mundial de Aficionados, Copas Espíritu Santo y Einsehower, junto con el Buenos Aires Golf Club.
