An upgraded five-star experience awaits players at Las Colinas Golf & Country Club<\/a><\/strong> this autumn as the top Spanish resort prepares for the return of international golf.<\/p>\n

The award-winning resort will be hosting Stage Two of the DP World Tour Qualifying School for the ninth successive occasion but for the first time since 2019 after the tournament was postponed the last two years due to the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Designed by Cabell B. Robinson, Las Colinas\u2019 18-hole championship golf course is a firm favourite among golfers for its wide fairways and extensive undulating greens, and the players will find it in outstanding condition when they head to the resort for the 72-hole event from November 1-6.<\/p>\n

Among the improvements taking place, the resort in the middle of a two-year renovation programme of all the bunkers using the \u2018Better Billy Bunker\u2019 system employed by a collection of the world\u2019s most prestigious golf venues including 2022 US Open host Brookline, Gleneagles, Oakland Hills and Whistling Straits \u2013 venue for the 2021 Ryder Cup.<\/p>\n

In addition, Las Colinas \u2013 which also hosted the 2019 Spanish Amateur Golf Championship \u2013 has adopted a rewilding policy across its the 13th<\/sup> and 15th<\/sup> holes over the last 12 months, not only redesigning the layout in a move to not only improve the course condition but also to reduce the amount of water, organic fertilisers and maintenance needed, helping to create new natural wildlife habitats for animals that live on the course to thrive.<\/p>\n

The resort has planted native trees and shrubs and started the turf conversion to a native plant area, while sprinkler irrigation in these areas will change to drip irrigation for trees and remove irrigation completely at the second stage. The work undertaken will reduce the amount of water needed per year as well as cutting energy costs.<\/p>\n
