Description
Nelspruit Golf Club is an attractive Lowveld layout that has risen spectacularly in the Golf Digest rankings over the past few years.
In 2004 it made the biggest climb of any course in the Top 100, leaping 26 places from 96 to 70. In 2005 it elevated itself yet again to 57 and, while the club does not live and die by the Top 100, it achieved its specified goal of breaking into the top 50 in 2006 when ranked 47.
"We view the rankings as a measure of where we stand compared to other courses in South Africa and aim to create a better all around golf experience for members and visitors alike, " says Club Manager Richard Rillema.
Rillema joined the club in 2000 during a difficult period. A year earlier all 18 greens had been lost to chemical burn while in 1998 the course had been through a long upgrade process.
Company description
While the course served its 550 members well as a convenient and affordable place to play golf, it always battled to stay in condition. That changed in 2002 when the club was fortunate to secure the services of Course Superintendent Leon Willemse, who had previously worked at the new Woodhill estate, and prior to that for golf course designer Peter Matkovich. Willemse brought with him a wealth of experience that is evident in the improvement to the course conditioning.
Nelspruit is famous for hosting the annual Jock of the Bushveld event, considered the biggest amateur tournament of its kind in the world. Started in 1968, it has grown to the extent where some 800 competitors play more than 2 000 rounds during a week in May.
The focus of management is to continue improving the condition of the course and club facilities and ensure that Nelspruit Golf Club remains Mpumalanga's top golfing destination.
