Also investors Jesús Rodríguez Sandoval, and key executives of the BHD business group consortium. Gary Player of the Gary Players Design and Gary Player Golf Academy organization was present for the event. The golf course has been named Los Palos Golf Course. According to the Gary Player organization, the property on which the golf course is going up is rich in natural features, all of which are being incorporated into the design of the golf course. Three different and distinctive areas have emerged which will give golfers the enjoyable variety of playing the first few holes on rolling terrain surrounded by extensive vegetation, then out into the open where they will play over and around lakes and a natural canyon and finish on holes that will feature extensive use of exposed coral.
