CENTRO ASTURIANO DE MEXICO
🇲🇽 Atlatlahucan, Morelos, MX
Designed by Jack Nicklaus
Centro Asturiano de Mexico's golf course sits in Atlatlahucan, a municipality in the state of Morelos roughly an hour south of Mexico City. The club was established by members of the Centro Asturiano social and cultural organization, which has deep roots in Mexico's Spanish immigrant community dating back to the early twentieth century. Jack Nicklaus designed the course, which occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Morelos highlands, with elevation changes and views toward the surrounding volcanic landscape.
The layout reflects Nicklaus's design principles from his work in Mexico and Latin America during the expansion of golf in the region. The routing takes advantage of natural contours and barrancas—ravines common to this part of central Mexico—that introduce both strategic interest and dramatic visual elements. The climate in Morelos is generally temperate and allows for year-round play, with the course maintained to standards typical of private clubs serving Mexico City's membership base.
Centro Asturiano functions primarily as a private social club, and the golf course serves members who value both the game and the broader cultural and recreational amenities the club offers. The setting provides a retreat from the capital while remaining accessible for regular play. The course is not widely known on the international tournament circuit but represents part of the growth of golf infrastructure in Mexico during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
