Has anyone had the chance to play the RTJII course at Alcanada in Mallorca?  Thoughts on the course please... Thanks!

Evan,

I was there 7-8 years ago and played once. I wasn't into golf architecture then, so can't really say much from a design point of view. Wide fairways,  fabulous views and very Trent Jones.

Regards,

Alfonso

Ranked well within the Spanish Top 50, the Alcanada course has a couple of reviews posted on the Top100golfcourses website:

Have not been to Alcanada, but German Golf painter Viktor Cleve has painted Alcanada. He kindly permitted us to use his painting as title of one of our latest editions of golfika - the magazine of the European Association of Golf Historians & Collectors (EAGHC):

You'll find more of Viktor's work which I personally like very much on his web-site:
