Operational since June 2000, Jaypee Greens, Greater Noida Golf Course is the only Greg Norman designed golf course in India. The course is an 18-hole championship layout, designed with the firm belief of setting new standards for championship golf in India.
From championship tee, the golf course Greater Noida is strong and one of the longest in the world with a length of 7347 yards. Its gently rolling fairways are grassed using an imported Bermuda grass called Evergreen. This grass has been selected for its exceptional performance and superior playing surface. The bunkering style at Jaypee Green sets it apart from other courses in India. The bunkers are reminiscent of classic Melbourne sand belt courses including the world famous Royal Melbourne and Kingston health layouts.
The course landscaping includes considerable planting of open and closed woodlands, understory scrublands, wetlands and wild-grassed areas. The principle behind the course landscape is to create a very naturalized and private space free from the heat, dust and hustle and bustle outside.
