Marco Simone Golf and Country Club

Marco Simone Golf and Country Club earned global recognition as the host venue for the 2023 Ryder Cup, cementing its place among the most important golf courses in Italy and indeed in Europe. Located in Guidonia Montecelio, north-east of Rome in Lazio, the club underwent significant transformation in the years leading up to hosting the biennial contest between Europe and the United States, with the course comprehensively redesigned to meet the demands of staging golf's greatest team event. The layout combines parkland terrain with strategic water features and a design philosophy that rewards bold, attacking play — the qualities that make Ryder Cup golf so compelling to watch. Visiting golfers can now experience the same holes that shaped some of the most memorable moments of the 2023 edition, walking fairways that carry the weight of recent history.
