In addition to Jumeirah Golf Estates, the world's largest golf community, Leisurecorp's portfolio includes Turnberry, Scotland's premier golf resort and host of The Open Championship 2009, and Pearl Valley Golf Estates, South Africa's leading residential golf community and home of the South African Open Championship.
