The Real Club Valderrama is a famous golf course in the south of Andaluc?a, 
just 20 km or so from Gibraltar. Its green fees are ridiculously high, 
several times the amount you pay to play a round of golf in Alicante. So my 
wife wanted to see what all the fuss is about, and the LIV Golf tournament 
held there last weekend provided an opportunity to walk the course, 
following some of the world?s best players. We chose to follow a group of 3 
players which included US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau and the English 
Ryder Cup hero Tyrrell Hatton, along with Spanish player Eugenio Chacarra. 
This way we got to see the entire course. By the time we got to our hotel in 
the nearby town of Torreguadiaro, we were really wiped out?driving 600 km 
and then walking 18 holes in the heat of southern Spain in July does tire 
you out. Fortunately, our seaside hotel had a nice restaurant, and our 
balcony provided nice views. A short gallery of the golf and the beach is 
here:

I am especially pleased with the golf shots where I managed to press the 
shutter in the right moment to capture the swing and the ball in flight in 
the same frame.

As always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
