A Golf Course Review of The Gary Player
♫ Wednesday, April 20th, 2011
How do you know when you have experienced something extra special?
Maybe you get pins and needles? Maybe you get a warm fuzzy feeling? Maybe you just smile when you think about the experience?
For me, I know because several days after being there I am still talking about it. Or in this case many weeks later I am still recounting my experience to anyone who’ll listen. You see, on a recent trip to see family in South Africa I had the privilege of being invited to play Blair Atholl – and boy oh boy is it special!
Gary Player’s family have had their family home here for 25 years so when Player decided to develop this into a golf estate it wasn’t just another project to add to the list of over 200 golf courses he has developed worldwide. This really was a personal labour of love. The result is probably one of the finest golfing experiences you could have anywhere in the world and it certainly will rival Player’s lovely courses at Sun City and Leopard Creek for the title of the best course in (South) Africa.
