It is not only championship courses that interest the great golf architects: thus Sir Nick Faldo, will design a new golf course in Kent in the south-east of England which will consist only of par threes and a putting green in Kent.
Nick Faldo, projectFacilities will be at Chart Hills Golf Club – where the main course was also designed by Faldo – which is currently undergoing extensive redevelopment.
The six-hole par three course will be the first of its kind designed by the legendary golfer and will feature holes ranging from 50 to 100 yards. Inspired by the career of the former world No.
In addition, a 668 square meter putting green, also designed and produced by Faldo Design, will be installed next to the first tee. The design will offer both functionality and fun, once again featuring key elements from Nick Faldo's favorite greens from his major wins at St Andrews, Augusta National and Muirfield – including his own Valley of Sin.
