While Madeira isn\u2019t traditionally thought of as a golf destination, it carries nearly 100 years of golfing history and features three courses across two islands\u2014Palheiro, Santo da Serra, and Porto Santo. The islands have also played host to the Madeira Open on the European Tour for many years. And with a fourth course under construction at Ponta do Pargo, Madeira\u2019s golf future looks brighter than ever. (Stay tuned for an upcoming episode on that spectacular project.) This episode focuses on \u201cGolf in Madeira\u201d\u2014both the golf experience itself and the company of the same name. Our first guest, Andre Rodriguez, owner of Golf in Madeira, shares insights into:   The unique character of golf on the island   What makes each course distinct   Why Madeira offers much more than a stand-alone golf holiday   Beyond golf, Andre highlights Madeira\u2019s incredible range of activities, including whale and dolphin watching, surfing, hiking, mountain biking, and more. We\u2019re then joined by Henrique Duarte of Irrimac, the Toro distributor for the region, and Ricardo Abreu, CEO of Santo da Serra. They take us through the story of Santo da Serra\u2019s history and the extraordinary challenge they faced when trying to create an irrigation solution for the course\u2014and the surrounding community\u2014when it was believed no workable solution existed. Together with Toro, they found one. If you\u2019re searching for an exciting, evolving, and authentic golf destination, Madeira deserves a spot on your map. &amp;nbsp; https:\/\/www.golfinmadeira.com\/ https:\/\/www.palheironatureestate.com\/palheiro-golf.html https:\/\/santodaserragolf.com\/ https:\/\/portosantogolfe.com\/ &amp;nbsp; A big thanks to our Show Partner - Toro  Check them out here! &amp;nbsp; https:\/\/www.golfclubtalk.uk\/the-green-print\/ https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thegreenprintgolf\/  https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/the-greenprint-golf\/?viewAsMember=true www.golfclubtalk.uk golfclubtalkuk@gmail.com &amp;nbsp; Support us here: https:\/\/buymeacoffee.com\/gctuk &amp;nbsp; Sign up to our Newsletter here ","author_name":"The Greenprint","author_url":"https:\/\/www.golfclubtalk.uk\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/39091885\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/39091885"}
