About Verdura Executive Course

Verdura's Executive Course is a nine-hole, par-27 short course at Verdura Resort on Sicily's southwest coast. Designed by Kyle Phillips, it sits beside the resort's practice facilities and is used both as a standalone short course and as part of Verdura's golf instruction programmes. The official resort information lists a men's playing length of 913 metres and a women's length of 790 metres.

All nine holes are par threes, making the layout distinct from Verdura's two full-length 18-hole courses. Verdura describes the course as suitable for beginners, families and experienced golfers working on their short games, while its golf programmes use it as the step between putting, chipping and pitching instruction and fuller on-course play. The surrounding golf operation includes a driving range, chipping area, practice bunker, putting green, equipment storage, golf instruction and a pro shop.

The course is a 9-hole executive golf course. It plays to par 27, 913m (999 yards). The course was designed by Kyle Phillips. It is open to the public. On-site facilities include Driving range, Chipping area, Practice bunker, Putting green, Pro shop, Golf lessons, Club rental, Equipment storage.

Origins

The Executive Course forms part of the golf complex created at Verdura Resort around Kyle Phillips-designed golf. Rather than functioning as another championship layout, it was developed beside the practice facilities as a nine-hole short course that could serve instruction, beginners and shorter rounds.

Design Philosophy

The layout consists entirely of par-three holes. Verdura integrates it closely with its teaching operation: resort instruction progresses from putting through chipping and pitching before players take those skills onto the Executive Course. This gives the course a deliberately different role from the resort's full-length layouts.

Development

Verdura's current golf programme includes a turf enhancement programme on the Executive Course, with Bermuda grass being introduced as part of work intended to improve resilience and reduce water demands.

Today

The Executive Course remains one component of Verdura's wider golf operation, alongside the East Links, West Shore and extensive practice and academy facilities.
