Gary Player: “I have never seen anything as good as this golf course”
Golf legend Gary Player arrived to Bulgaria to inspect the Black Sea Rama golf course. The South African professional golfer, who is one of the five persons to have received the golf Grand Slam, is currently working on two projects – the Thracian Cliffs and Black Sea Rama golf courses, at the invitation of Bulgarian Golf Association Chairman Krassimir Gergov. Both complexes are located right next to the Black Sea coast and will cover the highest world standards of 18-hole courses.
"When this course is finished it will be the best in the world. The progress is great and, honestly speaking, in my golf career I have not seen anything as good as this golf course. When people come and see it they will not believe their eyes. I mean it so beautiful, it is in fact the best golf terrain I have ever seen," Gary Player said. According to him there are only 5 golf courses like this in the world which are located directly on the coastline.
The Thracian Cliffs development spans across four kilometers of coastline and covers over 1,400 decares. The investment comes to about 300 million euro and besides the 18-hole golf course the complex will also include luxury villas, hotels and a modern SPA center. The state-of-the-art golf courses which are being constructed in Bulgaria aim at attracting wealthy tourists to the country. Bulgaria promises to become one of the new golf destinations and is expected to be a worthy rival of the already popular golf destinations Spain and Portugal
