Considered one of the most prestigious golf course in Italy, Marco Simone Golf Club, home of the 2023 Ryder Cup, is a must play if your are planning a golf vacation in "The Eternal City”.

 

The club will be the third venue in continental Europe to host the tournament, following 1997 host Club de Golf Valderrama in Spain and Le Golf National in France, which will host the tournament in 2018.

Italy was selected on December 2015 ahead of Austria, Germany and Spain to host the 44th edition of the tournament, with the decision being made by a Bid Evaluation Committee comprised of representatives from the European Tour and the Ryder Cup.

Located just 11 miles from downtown Rome, the course, designed by architect Jim Fazio, has been opened in 1989.

 

The  course has been completely renewed to host the Ryder Cup in 2023, The different starting tees provided (4 for men and 3 for women) allow all players to play the course from the most appropriate length, making Marco Simone’s experience special and motivating for all. 

 

The course unfolds in an exceptionally large area, giving the players who compete on Marco Simone’s golf course a real sense of freedom. The design winds through the undulating hills of the Roman countryside, with the Castello di Marco Simone backdropping numerous holes. To render the experience more exciting, the holes of the Resort path have been extended and enriched with new bunkers.

Thanks to the many starting tees, the new route adapts to players of all levels.
