Lorena Ochoa plays Diente de Perro at Casa de Campo for first time
Casa de Campo Resort & Villas welcomed one of the greatest legends of women's golf this Friday, as Mexico's Lorena Ochoa played the iconic Teeth of the Dog course for the first time, as reported by Suelo Caribe.
This is no small detail. A figure of her caliber choosing to play here is a massive endorsement for positioning the Dominican Republic as the golf capital of the Caribbean. The course, designed by Pete Dye, is carved into coral cliffs, with ocean views on several holes. Her visit puts the country back on the radar of international golf circuits.
High-end sports tourism is a lane the country should keep pushing. Athletes like Ochoa don't just enjoy the greens, they create content and conversation for millions of followers. This is promotion you can't buy with ads, and it directly benefits local economic activity and the country's standing in the global golf scene.
