PGA Tournaments Have Long Recognized Mexicos Splendor

By Martin Rolee


It will be tricky to visualize a more picturesque location to play golf than Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, and it turns out that is a view point shared by PGA Tour pros who are now going there to enjoy the golfing. We will offer a look at Mexico's Mayakoba golfing getaway and see how it stacks up within the world of golf today.

For those that might not be aware of, the Mayakoba Golf Classic at Riviera Maya-Cancun in Playa del Carmen has been happening since early 2007 and it is a competition which is part of the PGA Tour. Boasting a first prize of $666,000 based on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayakoba_Golf_Classic_at_Riviera_Maya, this really is by far the foremost cash laden of gold tournaments found in Mexico and as a result a place of genuine esteem for folks that welcome a superior golfing outing. Tee times here are in no way to be missed. If you ever stop at Cancun or some other section of the Riviera Maya, you simply have got to pay a visit to this course. The splendor, according to many a golfer, can take your breath away.

Yet that's not all that has been making this a stand out facility for golf players round the globe. The Golf Channel noted in a recent piece on Mayakoba (http://www.thegolfchannel.com/travel-caddie/mayakoba-rolls-red-carpet-pga-tour-41675/) of the fact that natural elegance of this facility has set it apart, as well as the fact that along with amazing golfing, the spot offers a place where golfers should feel secure bringing their families for a firstclass holiday. As many golfers realize, members of the family are not always hip to waiting around as we play, so it is nice to have things for them to do whilst we're out on the green.

Another actual outstanding point about Mayakoba is the fact that it is definitely focused on its future as a golf world leader, but not through expected means. Borrowing upon the Central American tradition of encouraging sustainability, a recent story in the Star Global Tribune posted by Suzanne March (http://starglobaltribune.com/2011/mexican-reviera-mexicos-mayakoba-golf-classic-focused-on-eco-tourism-6122) has publicized that it intends to keep a good focus on eco tourism. The golf course (including dozens of other high quality cancun golf courses), combined with the local snorkeling, Mayan pyramids and finally nature excursions all coalesce to help make the region one that is definitely sure to perform well over the long run without devastating its own ecological resources. As golf players, the splendor of the surroundings is often important to us so we can certainly endorse this model.

As it is easy to see, it is certainly a fascinating area in the Yucatan Peninsula with many beautiful maya riviera golf courses that deserve a visit. Should you visit Mayakoba, you are going to be able to check out a progressive hot spot for golf followers that is also part of the PGA Tour, unquestionably a treat.
