Description
Available in:
Perched at high altitude on a lush mountain plateau in the Alps, Crans-sur-Sierre has to be the most spectacularly scenic European Tour venue.
Golf was first played at Crans-Montana in the Swiss Alps way back in 1905, but at the outbreak of the First World War, the course was abandoned and it wasn’t resurrected until 1924 after the foundation of Crans-sur-Sierre Golf Club. A nine-hole course was soon laid out and then in 1928 Harry Nicholson extended the course to 18 holes.
Seve Ballesteros was drafted in to tighten up the main course in 1995 and he returned two years later to rebuild the greens after 70 years of wear and tear had taken toll. Clearly pleased with Seve’s transformation work, Crans-sur-Sierre renamed the course “Severiano Ballesteros” (it was previously known as Plan-Bramois).
