AC Milan legends Marco van Basten, Roberto Donadoni and Mauro Tassotti swapped goals for birdies as they embarked on Sicily’s Donnafugata Golf Resort & Spa recently.
The trio, who helped the Italian side win 17 titles including five Serie A titles and three European Cups, lined up on the Gary Player-designed Parkland Course before honing their games on the Links Course – the other 18-hole championship layout.
During their week-long stay at the luxurious resort, the former footballers had plenty of time to sample the resort’s restaurants and spa, as well as brush up their game at the state-of-the-art academy.
The Parkland Course, which hosted the European Tour’s Sicilian Open last season, paves through carob and olive trees and blends seamlessly with its environment. It also features a bit of history, too, with a sixth century Greek necropolis next to the sixth tee and an archaeological site by the 18th.
And the Links Course offers a pleasant contrast, running up and down two valleys, nestling between two nature reserves with the Mediterraneanas a backdrop.
Golfers can sample Donnafugata’s first-class facilities for themselves over the coming months with a variety of attractive offers.
A two-night bed and breakfast stay for two people including 18 holes of golf, one driving range token, one three-course dinner, two light lunches (all main meals excluding drinks), two free spa vouchers and tax is available for €350 per person.
And visitors seeking a longer break can enjoy a four-night package for two people featuring two rounds of golf, two driving range tokens, two three-course dinners, one light lunch (all main meals excluding drinks), one free spa voucher and tax for €585 per person.
