With beautiful views of the surrounding Spanish countryside, which includes mountains, rolling foothills, and long views of the Alboran Sea, Finca Cortesin is a gorgeous layout. Strong, aesthetically pleasing bunkers and big fairways allow architect Cabell Robinson to showcase his greens, while golfers will rejoice at a laid-back atmosphere off the tee, even if the relief does stop after the tee shots. Finca Cortesin has an impressive tournament résumé, with Ross Fisher defeating Anthony Kim in the 2009 World Match Play Championship, Ian Poulter defeating Luke Donald in 2011, and Nicolas Colsaerts defeating Graeme McDowell in 2012.
