Gary Player Set to Open Bulgaria Golf Course

One of the greatest golfers of all time, Gary Player, is set to open one of the golf course he has designed in Bulgaria on July 18.

For three years, Player has made numerous site visits to his two high-profile Bulgarian projects near Varna, Thracian Cliffs and BlackSeaRama.

On July 18, Player will be present for the official grand opening and charity golf tournament at the world-class BlackSeaRama Golf & Villas resort, an official press release reported.

The 7 200-yard, par-72 course occupies a dramatic coastal site on an elevated plateau that affords panoramic views of the Black Sea.

Within 13 miles of BlackSeaRama, Gary Player Design is also completing the construction phases at Thracian Cliffs Golf & Spa Resort, which is slated to open in late 2010.

Player, who on July 17th makes his fifth visit to the project, has enthusiastically stated: "The site at Thracian Cliffs reminds me of Pebble Beach and I expect the golf course to be just as dramatic."

Thracian Cliffs, also located on the northern Black Sea coast, is one of Bulgaria's largest and encompassing projects. The USD 152 M development will include a marina village, a mineral spa, boutique hotel, villas, townhouses and apartments.
