resort guests; the Omni PGA Frisco Resort hotel will open May 2023 – Registered guests will be notified via email of tee time booking details 120 days in advance of stay.} 7. Dunas Course at Terras da Comporta, Comporta, Portugal Playing golf in Portugal is an extreme delight and this new layout by David McLay Kidd will make it even better. Here’s a toast of a chilled Vinho Verde to this magnificent design set to debut this summer (2023). Situated on the Alentejo coast about an hour south of Lisbon, the Dunas course is remindful of a north Florida coastal course with constant sea breezes, white sugar sand dunes and scrub pine. The complex also includes a golf academy designed by Jose Maria Olazabal and Sergio Garcia. 8. The Lido Golf Club, Rome, Wisconsin I’m not sure what to think of this new Tom Doak design. It’s either a tribute course, a replica, a clone or a combination of all three. In a wildly ambitious, daring and creative project, Doak was recruited to reproduce C.B. MacDonald’s legendary, long-lost masterpiece, The Lido. The new Lido in Central Wisconsin is a bold idea by the Keiser Brothers, Michael and Chris. The Lido will operate as a semi-private club with reportedly some tee times available to Sand Valley Resort guests. The original Lido opened on Long Island in 1914 and at the time of its opening was compared in shot making to Pine Valley and National Golf Links. Unfortunately, the course was demolished by the U.S. Navy after the Navy purchased the property for use as a military base during World War II. Michigan Golf Journal
