Roman Road Course
The Roman Road was the resort's first, opened in 1995, and was then ranked as Wales' best inland layout. Since then, intensive investment has drastically improved the drainage, ensuring that the course can handle the demands of resort golf. Robert Trent Jones had to build around the many ancient Roman roads that traverse the land, and his work was so good that it played host to the Welsh Open in 2005 and 2006.
Montgomerie Course
The recently opened Montgomerie Course has been built using the land that formerly hosted the Coldra academy course, and Monty has used some of the original holes from the former Wentwood Hills Course, which played host to the Welsh Open from 2000 to 2004. The hilly layout will be a challenge for the best ball-strikers, and is a welcome addition to the Celtic Manor's golfing repertoire.
Twenty Ten Course
The Ryder Cup Course has been built at the bottom of the valley, and as a result the surrounding hills serve as natural amphitheatres; the atmosphere at the 2010 matches promises to be scintillating. Early predictions estimate that 50,000 people will follow each encounter when the Europeans and Americans lock horns around the 7,469-yard stadium course.
The Celtic Manor's practice and teaching facilities have made it the ideal home for Team Faldo and the Faldo Series. Notable features include the two-tiered driving range, whose purpose-built tuition bays utilise the latest in technology.
