The course
Landscape and character
West is the younger and more demanding of the two Son Antem courses: flat, but with undulating, well-defended greens.
West was also designed by Francisco López-Segalés; the course opened in 2001. Three large lakes come into play on five holes. According to the operator, the back nine are technical, especially the closing holes. According to the local rules, the driving range to the right of hole 10 and behind the 11th green is out of bounds.
The difference from East: East (1994) has wide fairways and flat, lightly defended greens and, according to the operator, is suitable for high handicappers. West demands more accuracy with approach shots and putts.
