The verdict
Prestige Golfshire sits at Devanahalli, north of Bangalore and close to the city's airport, where Bob Hunt routed a par 72 of 7,004 yards across rolling ground beneath the Nandi Hills. Managed by Troon, the course is known for its conditioning, its lake that comes into play on several holes and the panoramic hill backdrop that frames the round, and it is regularly ranked among India's best.
This is championship golf to an international standard, a long and well presented layout that rewards good ball striking and punishes the wayward in water and rough. The Troon management shows in the conditioning, and the setting below the Nandi Hills is among the most scenic in Indian golf. Access is built around the club and its residences, so plan ahead and arrange a tee time in advance.

The holes worth the trip
Prestige Golfshire plays across rolling, well conditioned ground with the Nandi Hills as a constant backdrop. The fairways are generous in places but framed by water and rough, so the premium is on a positioned drive and an honest read of the carry, especially on the holes where the lake comes into play.
At a full 7,004 yards off the back the course has championship length, but it is the conditioning and the strategic water that define it rather than tricks. The greens are large, true and quick under Troon management, so approach play and putting decide the round.
The closing stretch asks for accuracy as the water tightens the lines, and the hill backdrop makes for a memorable finish. Played from the right tees it is a fair and rewarding test, and from the back markers a proper championship examination among the best in India.
