Classic Golf Resort is set amidst the foot hills of the Aravali, Mother Nature's own hillocks and knolls make for natural golfing country...lending themselves ideally to enticing fairways, cunning greens and engaging waterways...enough to quicken any serious golfer's heart. Both professionals and leisure golfers can discover the joys and challenges of golf at this 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course.
Jack's philosophy behind Classic Golf resort was to create a great and unique golf course by mixing shot value and blending holes which rewards the player who uses his intelligence and favors precision over power.
The course is well balanced with holes that vary in direction, "look" and "feel" so that one type of golfer isn't favored over another. The course rewards strategic, intelligent thinking as much as fine ball striking and the holes are designed to enable golfers to make precise decisions in club selection and execution of each shot.
Preserving the land's natural character was also paramount and the natural features have been integrated into the design. The majority of the holes follow the existing contours of the site in order to make the course as enjoyable and user friendly as possible.
India's most prestigious golf tournament, The Wills Indian Open was held at Classic Golf Resort for the first time in 2000.
