Legend (Alternate Tees) at Penati Golf Resort

The Legend course at Penati Golf Resort represents Jack Nicklaus's design work in Slovakia, situated in the western part of the country near Senica in the Trnava region. Opened in 2008, it was the first Nicklaus Signature course in Slovakia and forms part of a larger resort development that includes a second eighteen-hole layout. The property occupies relatively flat to gently rolling terrain characteristic of the Záhorie lowlands, with the design incorporating water features, strategic bunkering, and mature tree plantings to define holes and create strategic interest.

The alternate tees designation indicates this routing offers different teeing grounds from the standard Legend configuration, providing varied angles of approach, adjusted yardages, or alternative strategic emphases on the same hole corridors. This setup allows the course to play differently for members and guests seeking variety or accommodating different skill levels and competitive formats. Nicklaus designs from this era typically emphasize wide fairways with defined landing areas, substantial greenside bunkering, and greens with considerable contour and internal movement.

Penati Golf Resort functions as a destination facility in a region where golf infrastructure remains relatively limited compared to Western Europe. The resort includes practice facilities, accommodation, and dining amenities that serve both domestic Slovak golfers and international visitors exploring Central European golf. The Legend course, along with its companion Heritage layout, positions the property as one of Slovakia's more prominent golf venues.
