Players will spend four days on the course in December. Our teams have already spent months getting it ready.
Tournament golf asks a lot of a course. Greens need to roll fast and true from the first group out to the last. Fairways, rough and bunkers must play the same way on every hole, every day. A professional field notices the smallest difference, and so do the television cameras.
More than the course
Preparation goes well beyond the grass. The same teams are shaping how visitors will move around the estate, where they will watch, eat and gather, and how players, partners and the international media will be welcomed. Every detail matters.

Over the coming weeks we will follow the people behind this work, from the greenkeepers out at first light to the operations teams in the clubhouse. It is a collective effort, and one the whole Mont Choisy Le Golf team is proud of.
