    Golf in Algarve (Almancil/Vilamoura)

    Qunita and Vale DL are overpriced I think but you are paying for the sun and location. Others a bit further out are much better value but out of the way

    Is this an especially wet Winter where you play?

    This year has been the wettest yet that I can remember. Even the ground around us is extremely wet. Fair play to our course greenkeeping team they’ve been great making improvements during lock downs with a view on their overall plans. The course is a bog at the moment but nobody will be...

    FJ Giveaway...

    My mate backed Tommy Bjorn at the European Open at the K Club prior at 33/1 and he was leading by 4 going to the 17th to stuff 3 into the Liffy and taking 11 back in 2005. We left at 16 to beat the crowds as he skiped up the road to later discover his bet had tanked.
