About
A stunning stretch of land between the Adriatic Sea and the Lagoon of Venice was the site of a 1928 construction that was later expanded to 18 holes in 1951.
The course was initially designed as a 9-hole layout by Count Volpi di Misurati in 1930 at the request of auto tycoon Henry Ford. In 1951, Ken Cotton and John Harris expanded the layout to its current 18-hole layout. The course hosted the Italian Open in less than four years and would do so twice more, in 1960 and 1974. In more recent years, it served as the venue for the Senior Italian Open, hosting four of the competition's events between its founding in 2004 and 2007.
