The Golf Challenge Istanbul by Turesta

The Golf Challenge Istanbul has recently taken place (on the 5th of June), with international players playing official club handicaps at Kemer Country Golf Club.

Kemer Country Golf Club, built on rolling hills of Belgrad Forest, offers an extraordinarily beautiful and challenging golf course. Lush green, runs through skilfully shaped hills along woods and ponds. Each hole, uniquely designed with its own character, promises spectacular games to pros while motivating beginners. Once the game is over and challenges are overcome, the Bistro Restaurant or the Driving Range Cafe will be ready for the golfers.

With its 18-hole golf course in international standards, Kemer Country Golf Club is what comes to mind when you say golf in İstanbul. The golf course, designed by famous designer Joan Dudok van Heel in compliance with the USGA standards, appeals not only to beginners but to fastidious professional golfers as well.
