The Montgomery Golf Course
Colin Montgomerie officially launched his latest design project on May 23rd 2006. Appointed by Papillon Hotels, Colin will design a new 18 hole golf course in the Belek region of Turkey, near Antalya. The Montgomerie Course at Papillon Golf Club will form part of a new $100 million golf and hotel complex.
To compliment the 18 hole championship golf course there will be a flood lit 9 hole short course and a golf academy, as well as a luxury 5 star hotel and up to 40 holiday villas which will join the four existing Papillon hotels in Belek.

Hole 1 :
Avoid the big waste areas with an accurate tee shot for a steady start your round. This long par 5 opening hole is a fair warm up for what is awaiting you on your great journey around Monty's monster...

Hole 10 :
A beautiful little par 4 starts the second nine. A strategic tee shot avoids the waste areas and leaves you with a good view of the green. When judging your second shot remember that you are playing downhill.

Hole 2 :
This hole gives you the chance to set the pace of the day or recover from the hectic start. A gentle par 3 that is a good birdie opportunity.

Hole 11 :
A relatively long par 5 through the pine trees. You need to be both long and accurate as the lines of trees are thick and will penaltise the wild shot. Line your tee shot up on the almost unreachable center bunker for the best view for your second shot. A raised green will make your approach decisive.

Hole 3 :
A nice draw with a long iron or a fairway wood from the tee will leave you a short iron in to this undulating green. A long drive that cuts the corner might be rewarded but is not of importance as a deep bunker guards the right of the green .

Hole 12 :
The toughest par 4 on the course is long even with todays equipment. Birdies will be rarehere and for the amateur golfer it might be wise to play it like if it was a par 5. Don't be fooled, the bunker on the left is well short of the green.

Hole 4 :
Risk or reward. With a long accurate tee shot you might get a chance to reach this par 5 in two. For the more conservative player the thirdshot also over water must be well judged as the correct distance is vital.

Hole 13 :
Make up your mind, should you go left or right of the trees in the middle of the fairway? For the longer players a tee shot to the left leaves a view of the round the corner. With a waste bunker spilitting the fairway for your second shot this dog legged par 5 will test all your golfing skills.

Hole 5:
Water, water... A long accurate tee shot is required on this mentally difficult par 3. Take a plenty of club to carry th lake to a generous green, a faded tee shot would certainly help here.
|

Hole 14 :
Make sure to take plenty of club here to clear the water. Think about the wind above the tree line as it might fool you standing on the tee. It takes a courageous mid iron to find this green.

Hole 6:
A tough stretch of par 4's is now waiting. Be careful not to pull your tee shot as there is water lurking on the left. The undulating fairway will give you plenty to think about for your long approach to the green.

Hole 15 :
It mightbe the shortest par 4 on the course but can still cause you lots of trouble. Stay away from the deep bunkers protecting the corner and be careful, this fairway gets narrower the longer you are of the tee. The subtle but undulating green offers many varied and challenging hole positions.
|
| 7 |

Hole 7 :
Another good drive is required to carry the water. Aim right for the shortest route over water, but left for the best approach shot to this well defended raised green.

Hole 16 :
Take a moment to enjoy the fabulous view from this tee! The waste area in front of the green is reminiscent of the third hole at pine walley, one of Colin's favorite golf courses. The imaginative shape of this green offers numerous interesting hole locations.

Hole 8 :
A mid iron to this relatively easy par 3 in the far corner of the course. Be aware of the stream crossing the fairway, it has a magic magnet for golf balls or so it seems....
|

Hole 17 :
This tee shot is made for Monty's fade. The waste bunker on the right will catch a sliced drive, and the high pine in the right front corner of the green make you favor the left entrance to this generous green that slopes to the right.
|

Hole 9 :
A relaxing stroll trough the villas has given you time to refocus. A well placed drive leaves you an easier angle into this green protected by the lake in front. Be careful, not to go trough the green, as a bunker shot back across the green would be testing to say the least.

Hole 18 :
A long and challenging par 5 through a wide fairway divided by big waste areas will take you home to the magnificent Club house. Keep your concentration and you might pick up a finishing birdie if you can successfully avoid the deep bunkers on the left.
