Quinta do Lago North

The Quinta do Lago North course has a fascinating history and can boast two sets of architects . First came William Mitchell , who was responsible for holes 1 to 5 and 15 to 18 , in 1974 , when he also designed the South course . The remaining nine holes were designed by Joseph Lee , in 1989 . The signature umbrella pines form elegant corridors while the creeping bent grass fairways are typical to Mediterranean courses . Two new designers were brought on board after 2010 , with the goal of revitalising , updating and enhancing the course . The partnership of Beau Welling and Paul McGinley firmly established the North course as a favourite when it re-opened in 2014 . Regular players here are convinced that someone who draws the ball will succeed best , given the anti-clockwise arrangement of the holes .
