The Next Trend?
Thursday, December 16, 2004 at 11:50 AM First you had to have a player-architect. Now two for one course?
“Two of golf’s greatest golfers are teaming up to create a world-class layout at Waterberg, one of the fastest-growing areas in South Africa,” says a press release touting a new Ernie Els-Jack Nicklaus design in South Africa.
The duo was brought together by the “lure of
big game and a love for championship golf .” Yes, the course will be
playing through a big game preserve.
“Occupying over 6,900
acres of bushveld, Waterberg boasts an abundance of water in a
malaria-free area. Residents will be able to view almost all of the
major species of game on the property, including four of the Big 5.”
What does that mean? Well, at least it's good to know that the Waterberg is malaria-free.
