How many golf courses are there in the Punta Cana area?
Many but only one is in the world's top 100 courses. Guess which one that is?
Hint: The purpose of this thread. lol
I think Punta Espada was the first golf course outside the USA that was in the PGA Tours.
Now, Teeth of the Dog in Casa de Campo is also in the top 100 courses, but that is the number 1 course in all of Central America and the Caribbean. Incredible that since it was created in the 1970's plenty of new golf courses have followed in the region and none beats it. Even Punta Espada which is the second best golf course in the region didn't beat Teeth of the Dog. lol
They used to have the Teeth of the Dog in the Microsoft golf simulator for the PC. You can virtually practice before playing the real thing.
The DR needs to create a golf course in the south where the weather is semi-desert and there can be cactuses in the scenery like in Arizona. I think that's the setting the DR has that still doesn't have a golf course.
