THE BRIDGES

AT RANCHO SANTA FE

-

California

Hidden amid the citrus groves and canyons of Southern California, the extraordin­ary golf course at The Bridges at Rancho Santa Fe was designed by Robert Trent Jones II. Here the lush green tones of the fairways and greens flow through the course in striking contrast to the rocky terrain that surround them. With bridges stringing together the golf holes as required, a singular, unforgetta­ble golf experience has been created.

The 7,000-yard, par-71 challenge can seem daunting from some tees, yet five sets of tee boxes are offered, to cater for all skill levels, and golfers need to remember that first appearance­s can be deceptive. Yes, there are craggy canyons into which wayward golf balls will never re-emerge, yet the target areas are always broader and more receptive than they at first appear. Therein lies the magic of The Bridges.
