Designed by golfing legend, Ernie Els, the Els Club at Copperleaf Golf & Country Estate is all about top-notch golfing in a gorgeous setting. Situated just 40 minutes from the shopping Mecca of Sandton in Johannesburg, this golf course offers pro golfers as well as beginners a memorable experience in the heart of Gauteng.
The course at Els Club was designed with integrity to the local environment. The natural topography of the land has been maintained to enhance the experience, and the prettiness of the surrounds maintained as an idyllic backdrop. There are beautiful water hazards that combine with natural grasses, which are illuminated by the clear African sunshine. The challenging bunkers are a welcome test for those wanting to get some great practice in.
The design of the course has been described as ‘modern classic’ with a minimalist approach. However, all of the amenities and facilities necessary (and a few extra) are par for the course here.
Visitors are welcome to play at the Els Club, which is open from Tuesday to Sunday. Tee times are welcome, and the proper golf attire is required.
