... in the top 10...

...from Italy, the Blue Corso... the Yellow Corso is in the top 50
The hunting ground that once belonged to the Savoy royal family is now a nature reserve, we play golf here - great - on four courses!!!
They were very grateful for the wet from above, unfortunately it became a bit much in the days before our visit. As a result, the playing conditions were far from perfect. The ground was partly wet, but far less deep than in Royal Roveri, which is right next door, here they were already able to work on most of the areas with the machines - we were surprised...
Blue Corso
John Morrison - a very polyvalent person - worked here. His curriculum vitae is impressive, as an athlete (soccer, criket and golf), as an Air Force pilot, studying law and history, as a golf course designer - the successes as well...
He was a partner and director in Harry Colt's company, from his personal hand about a dozen courses were created, all but one have received the highest consecration!!!
Marco Groze has further developed the original course into a 27-hole facility.
Graham Cooke did some significant work on these holes during the 1999 Italia Open.
Great course, is the undisputed favorite of the two, it is also the core of the entire golf course, the Giallo Corso leads around the outside.
Giallo Corso
Graham Cooke, a Canadian who has built a number of very good courses (especially in Canada and the States) has also worked in Italy - not only here...
In some places you are in the immediate vicinity of Royal Roveri - very close - separated only by the water.
Both courses are about the same difficulty to play - the greens were very easy to play - are in slightly hilly terrain and lead through ancient trees.
All employees earn very good grades here!!!
You can give both five stars for the layout - rate the Giallo Corso higher than the Allianz Bank Corso in Roveri. The maintenance is still a bit behind here, but more advanced than in Roveri, there are four stars
We close both eyes a little and award five stars!!!
It shows once again that our earlier grading system 1-6 was better, could fine-tune...
Seems we've hit the weather window, towards the end of the week we're forecasting significant rainfall again!!!
Tomorrow we want to play Biella - hopefully dry...

The parkland neighbor of the I Roveri

Great parkland course. 2x 18 holes of the extra class. Both courses beautiful and difficult at the same time. Immediately again.

Played mid-March 18 at 18 degrees and sun... greens super! the rest due to the heavy rain the days before okay. Layout very nice (the back 9 of each course were open) Staff very friendly. Waschplatz a bit small and now for this club not what you imagine... due to the mentioned wet the trollies had to be cleaned completely which was a bit difficult...

Beautiful place

Quite great gaming experience, the place in autumnal colors immersed. Beautiful trees, challenging tracks. Is worth the money.

World Class!

A dream of a plant! Impressive vegetation - Parkland "at its best"! Very varied designed tracks, every now and then the water, but then playfully and simply beautiful embedded that it does not come out for a surprise! Fairways top, green top, a real treat! We played both courses, for us there was no favorites. Although very expensive, yet both places are absolutely worth the money! I would do it again! ;-)

Fantastic place
Reviewed October 23, 2014
We played the Blue Corse. It is the elder of the two, on the Italian Open to be played.
You have to look far to find such a nice place! It's all true. Mature trees, great fairways, fair layout, super design and impressive fast, faithful greens that have it in them.

Lish absolutely fantastic!

Super place. Since everything is right. Layout, well maintained fairways and greens, absolutely quiet, not overcrowded on weekdays, great views of the Alps. Green fees at the top end, but you also get a return value. Highly recommended.

Welcome as a guest
Reviewed November 29, 2009
If you want to experience a wonderful day of golf, a total aesthetic-sensual experience, I can heartily recommend Circolo Golf Torino;
A dream of receiving the (female) caddy master, the welcome in the office (or the club manager personally), the service at the snack bar to the quality of the restaurant, for lovers of a classic is the Halfeway station, from metropolitan arrogance (as in many Munich clubs) you do not feel anything as a guest, but you have a very well maintained, challenging and variable golf course with very old trees and the Horizontal repeatedly articulating hedge rows, greens and fairways are perfect, not for nothing were more than 10 times the Italian Open here instead (!) and another note is appropriate: it is a peaceful oasis in the former hunting grounds of the Savoy kings and the golf course are always fantastic views of the nearby South Alps-free;
