Jockey Club: Blue

The Blue (Azul) course at the Jockey Club was also designed in 1930 by Alister Mackenzie as a complement to the Red (Colorada) course. Similar to the Colorada, the Azul features a flat layout bolstered by mounding, undulating greens and large trees that overhang and protect many fairways and greens. The front nine is known for a four-hole stretch played across the street from the rest of the course and adjacent to the horse racing track, with each hole featuring a distinct and difficult water hazard. Mackenzie designed the Jockey Club with Augusta National in mind as the second nine features the par-3 seventh modeled after the 12th hole at ANGC. Located 45 minutes from Buenos Aires international airport, the Jockey Club should be on the bucket-list of any golfer playing in the region.
