ECHOES OF GOLF<br />

was played here in 1906. The legendary French pioneer of golf Diaz<br />

Albertini from Paris, who was the member of the Karlovy Vary golf<br />

club at the same time, became the first winner of this famous trophy.<br />

In the 1920s a small change in the name was carried out and<br />

Kaiserpark was renamed Geysirpark. The golf course was already so<br />

overcrowded with golfers that protective nets had to be put round it<br />

because of strokes. In 1928 a suitable place for a new 18-hole golf<br />

course started to be searched in Karlovy Vary. It was built in Olšová<br />

Vrata from the plans of the French architect Constantin Noskowski.<br />

The opening took place on the 30th June 1935.<br />

The boom of golf courses in Karlovy Vary was interrupted by the<br />

war. It was only in 1949 when the golf club was re-established. It<br />

started looking after both overgrown golf courses. The Geysirpark<br />

grounds could not be extended any more and were therefore not<br />

suitable for further improvements. It was why the club preferred<br />

the golf course in Olšová Vrata, which it leased. 9 holes were renewed<br />

by 1952. And later enthusiastic Karlovy Vary golfers managed<br />

to renew all 18 holes after thousands of hours of work. On the<br />

18th September 1960 that the golf course was officially opened.<br />

There are about 10 golf courses in the Karlovy Vary region at present.<br />

Thousands of golfers from the whole world visit the Golf<br />

Resort in Olšová Vrata every year. In 1997 an architecturally unique<br />

clubroom and a restaurant were built. The Golf Restaurant is run<br />

by the <strong>Grandhotel</strong> <strong>Pupp</strong>.<br />

Based on extracts from the book Green Story.<br />
