Bogotá is home to almost 50% of the country's professional golf courses. Some of them were designed by international figures such as Robert Trent Jones, Gary Player and Mark Mahannah, and important tournaments have been held here such as the international European Challenge Tour which the players voted as the place where they felt most welcome.
