The course at Reserva Conchal Golf Club in Costa Rica’s Gold Coast is a Robert Trent Jones Jnr layout that first opened for play after four years of construction in 1996.
Such are the strict preservation requirements in the country, the RTJ2 team managed to set out the eighteen fairways without felling a single native Banyan tree. Several small lakes and lagoons were also built to filter run off from the course and allow water to be recycled.
Extending to almost 7,000 yards from the back markers, the course consists of two nines that each meander off into dense rainforest vegetation before returning to sparkling lagoons that run alongside the Pacific Ocean coastline.
The round ends with a tough trio of finishing holes which features a wonderful par three sandwiched between two stout par fives. The 212-yard downhill 17th demands an all-or-nothing carry to a water-fronted, three-tiered green at a critical point in the round when flagging golfers will be severely punished.

As a teenager, RTJ2 worked for his father, learning how to run a bulldozer. His dad paid him the union rate for the job and he used the money for flying lessons, obtaining his pilot’s license aged sixteen.
