In November of 2010 the Costa Baja golf course and club house were inaugurated. Participating in the opening were golf legend Gary Player and perennial number one ranked female golfer, Lorena Ochoa. Following the ribbon cutting ceremony Gary and Lorena conducted a driving range and bunker clinic. Later the two teed off for six holes in front of a large crowd.

This is Player’s first golf course in Latin America The winner of 163 tournaments, he has designed 300 courses spread over five continents.
