The Jockey Club - Argentina

The Jockey Club, with its Tudor clubhouse fit for a king, is located on Avenida Marquez in San Isidro, a suburb on the north side of Buenos Aires. One of the

most famous and stylish of South American clubs, the Jockey Club has two 18-hole courses, the championship Red Course and the Blue Course, both designed by the illustrious Dr.Alister MacKenzie. The site of the courses, adjoining the club's racetrack and polo fields near the River Plate, is flat. MacKenzie therefore had to create features and give the courses definition, which he accomplished by constructing pushed-up greens, mounds, and clever use of bunkering. The courses opened in 1935, one year after MacKenzie's death. The Red Course hosted the World Cup in 1962, when the American team of Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead won, and in 1970, when the Aussie duo of Bruce Devlin and David Graham were victorious.

Llao Llao Resort and Hotel Golf Course - Argentina

Llao Llao Resort & Hotel is set in the Andean grandeur of Argentina's Nahuel Huapi National Park in Patagonia. Located 22 miles from the town of Bariloche and 17 miles from the main ski center of Cerro Catedral, the hotel sits on the hill between Lakes Nahuel Huapi and Moreno, with the snowcapped Andes as a backdrop and the golf course spread out below. The hotel, opened in 1940, is the work of the well-known Argentine architect, painter, and sculptor Alejandro Bustillo. Designed in the style of a Canadian mountain lodge, it features cypress logs, Norman red roof tiles, and a stone base. The golf course was situated and designed by Alberto Solar Dorrego. The course loops around the shores of ice-blue Lake Nahuel Huapi, with specimen trees of cypress, coigue, and arrayan.
