Across the green comes the call of golf

(I-Newswire) August 20, 2009 - Soccer mad Bulgaria traditionally hasn't had much time for golf, but that is changing as people realise that the Bulgarian climate would suit the golfing season perfectly- stretching it out to eight or nine months a year.

Nine years after the first golf course was built, Bulgaria is on the fast track to becoming an established world golf destination and the development of the golf industry would double the all-important summer season on the Black Sea coast.

The Government is also backing the drive to boost golf in Bulgaria and plans to develop the industry and attract an increasing number of upper-class affluent tourists. It sees the construction of golf courses as an alternative to the property boom on the Black Sea Coast and in mountain resorts.

Soon, Bulgaria will be home to one of Europe's top golf courses, in the form of the new Gary Player Signature course, which is part of Thracian Cliffs Golf & Spa Resort.

The 18-hole Gary Player Signature golf course forms the core of the luxury mixed-use development which is located on 164-hectares of wild, scenic Black Sea coast terrain.

The Golf Clubhouse will offer casual luxury with a comfortable, sophisticated and inviting social atmosphere for golfers and friends. The facility will include relaxing restaurants, an elegant bar and lounge with fireplaces and terraces overlooking the 18th green and seaside views to the Gary Player Signature golf course.

The Clubhouse will include workout facilities, indoor and outdoor pools with dramatic views in all directions.

And just in case you find yourself on the golf course without your dictionary, here are a few useful phrases to help you get 'a-round'….

'Did you see where that landed?'
Видя ли тази топка къде падна?
Vidia li tazi topka kyde padna?

'That is a horrible lie'

Това е ужасна лъжа.
Tova e uzhasna lyzha.

'Surely that's a gimme'
Тази топка е вътре със сигурност.
Tazi topka e vytre sys sigurnost.

'This to go all square. No pressure.'
Резултатът от тази дупка е равен. Спокойно.
Rezultatyt ot tazi dupka e raven. Spokojno.

'I didn't touch it'
Не я докоснах.
Ne ia dokosnah.

'No I definitely scored 4 not 5'
Не, със сигурност отбелязах 4, не 5.
Ne, sys sigurnost otbeliazah 4, ne 5.

Good shot
Добър удар.
Dobyr udar.
