PAPILLION GOLF
COURSE
Colin
Montgomerie officially launched his latest design project with
European Golf Design at the recent BMW Championship.
Colin will design a new 18 hole golf course in the Belek region
of Turkey, near Antalya. The Montgomerie Course at Papillon Golf
Club will form part of a new $100 million golf and hotel complex.
To compliment the 18 hole championship golf course there will
be a 9 hole short course and a golf academy, as well as a luxury
5 star hotel and up to 40 holiday villas which will join the four
existing Papillon hotels in Belek.
Mustafa
Nazik, President of Papillon Hotels said "We are delighted
to announce the addition of The Montgomerie Course at Papillon
Golf Club to our family of resorts. I am very honoured that Colin
Montgomerie is bringing his design experience and personality
to our portfolio".
At the official signing ceremony Montgomerie said "I am delighted
to be associated with the Papillon Hotels golf course at Antalya
and designing what we hope will be yet another great tournament
venue." "You never know, one day on our ever-expanding
European Tour we might have a Turkish Open played on this course."

the natural sandy ground will be maintained to develop the particular
characteristics of the golf course.
