Für Top-Golfclubs ist die Plastikflasche ein No-Go

Im Valderrama Golf Club ist klar: Plastikflaschen gibt es nicht mehr. Gleiches gilt im Heritage Resort auf Mauritius, im Sentosa Golf Club in Singapur, im Princeville Golf Club auf Hawaii oder im Els Club in Dubai. Golfanlagen, die sich zu den führenden Anbietern weltweit zählen, nehmen sich des Plastikproblems an.

Im Cart ist Einmalplastik Standard

Bis dato galt auf Golfanlagen weltweit vor allem eine Devise: Einsteigen ins Golfcart – und da steht sie: Die Wasserflasche aus Plastik. Egal ob in den USA, in Thailand, Griechenland, den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten oder Portugal. Service am Golfer bedeutet dessen Versorgung mit Wasser für die Runde. Wohlgemerkt Wasser aus der Plastikflasche. Für eine 18-Löcher-Anlage, die in mediterranem oder heißem Klima liegt, kann man von einem Verbrauch von rund 100.000 Plastikflaschen im Jahr ausgehen, bei 36 Löchern sind 150.000 Plastikflaschen ein Durchschnittswert. Auf Golfplätzen, auf denen nicht mit dem Cart gefahren wird, reduziert sich die Zahl deutlich, da viele Golfer Getränke von zu Hause mitbringen. Unterscheiden muss man dabei noch zwischen Plastikflaschen aus Einweg-Plastik, das in der EU weitgehend nicht mehr erlaubt ist, und sogenannten PET-Flaschen, die mit Pfand belegt sind und automatisch in den Recycling-Prozess einlaufen.

In manchen Ländern stehen Golfer eben dieser Plastikflasche inzwischen aber offenbar sehr skeptisch gegenüber. Bei einer Umfrage von Golf Sustainable und der Universität der Bundeswehr München gaben 74,2 Prozent der deutschen Golfer an, dass ihnen die Verhinderung von Plastikmüll auf Golfanlagen wichtig sei. 58,85 Prozent gaben an, ihre eigenen wiederauffüllbaren Flaschen von zu Hause mitzubringen. Trotzdem sind auch hier PET-Plastikflaschen bei Turnieren Standard.

Plastikverschmutzung als weltweites Problem

Plastikmüll verursacht weltweit Probleme. Schon jetzt bestehen 85 Prozent allen Abfalls in den weltweiten Ozeanen aus Plastik. Das UN Environment Programm (UNEP) prognostiziert, dass sich die Menge an Plastik in Ozeanen bis ins Jahr 2040 beinahe verdreifachen wird. Laut dem Wissenschafts-Magazin Nature betragen die alljährlichen Kosten für Plastikverschmutzung für die Gesellschaft (inklusive Recycling und Wiederverwertung) über 100 Milliarden Dollar pro Jahr. „Die Kosten dafür, nichts gegen Plastik zu unternehmen, übertreffen die Kosten dafür, das Thema Plastik anzugehen, bei weitem,“ sagt Lindsay Godfrey, eine der führenden Wissenschaftlerinnen am Council for Scientific and Industrial Research in Pretoria, South Afrika.

Das gilt auch für die Golfindustrie. Schließlich müssen die Wasserflaschen zuerst eingekauft oder befüllt, dann gelagert, auf die Carts verteilt, wieder aus dem Müll sortiert, von Restwasser geleert und dann in den Abfall entsorgt werden. Die Abfallentsorgung kostet dann noch Geld. Außerdem wird der CO₂-Abdruck einer Golfanlage dadurch negativ beeinflusst. Es ist erheblich preisgünstiger, wenn der Golfer eine Alu-Trinkflasche mitbringt und sich Wasser aus einer Wasserstation zieht.

Innerhalb der Golfindustrie wächst der Druck auf die Betreiber sich des Plastikproblems anzunehmen. Obwohl führende Golfresorts wie etwa Pebble Beach, Gleneagles oder Pinehurst immer wieder mit Nachhaltigkeitsmaßnahmen in die Öffentlichkeit gehen, ist das Plastikproblem auf den Anlagen immanent.

Dabei machen andere prominente Golfanlagen deutlich, dass sich Plastik mit der richtigen Strategie durchaus vermeiden lässt.  Im Valderrama Golf Club in Spanien werden keine Plastikflaschen mehr verwendet. Gäste und Mitglieder erhalten wiederauffüllbare Wasserflaschen geschenkt. Auch der Princeville Makai Golf Club auf Kauai entschied sich 2020, die Wasserflaschen auf den Carts und bei der Halfway Station abzuschaffen. Stattdessen können die Golfer entweder einen Papierbecher aus recyceltem Material verwenden, eine wiederauffüllbare Aluminium-Flasche für drei Dollar kaufen oder ihre eigenen Behälter mitbringen. Einsparung: Über 50.000 Flaschen pro Jahr. „Nachdem wir auf einer Insel angesiedelt sind, sind wir uns des Mülls sehr bewusst. Wir wollen unsere Ozeane davor schützen, dass Einwegplastik in ihnen landet,“ erklärt Michael Neider, General Manager des Princeville Makai Golf Clubs.

Positive Ansätze von Mauritius bis Singapur

Die Beachcomber Hotels auf Mauritius verwenden in den Hotels und auf dem Golfplatz ebenso wie das Heritage Resort nur noch Flaschen aus Pflanzenstoff, der sich zersetzt. In den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten ist das Unternehmen No More Bottles auf insgesamt sieben Golfanlagen aktiv. Im Els Club Dubai hat man im Zeitraum von Anfang 2020 bis August 2022 allein rund 180.000 Plastikflaschen eingespart. Neun Wasserspender auf dem Platz sorgen dafür, dass die Golfer ihre Flaschen wiederbefüllen können.

“Jedes Detail hilft”, resümierte Andy Johnston, General Manager und Director of Agronomy im Sentosa Golf Club in Singapur schon 2018.  “Die Entscheidung, alle Plastikflaschen von Golfcarts zu entfernen, wird unseren Plastikverbrauch signifikant senken.“ Zwei Jahre später musste er allerdings auch sagen, dass die Umstellung der Golfer nicht unbedingt einfach war: „Nein, am Anfang kam die Idee nicht unbedingt gut an.“ Inzwischen hat sich das Thema erledigt. Auch in Sentosa können die Golfer eigene Flaschen verwenden oder bekommen wiederauffüllbare Flaschen im Proshop. All‘ dies sind positive Beispiele innerhalb einer Branche, die ansonsten aber noch weitgehend von Plastikflaschen abhängt.

Golf und Nachhaltigkeit: Eins mit der Natur

Wie sieht die Zukunft der Plastikverwendung aus?

In der ersten Dezemberwoche tagten Delegierte aus mehr als 150 Ländern in Uruguay im Rahmen des Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC) und verhandelten über ein mögliches globales Abkommen zur Beendigung der Plastikverschmutzung. Dabei standen zwei wesentliche weitere Fragen im Mittelpunkt: Kann Recycling wirklich eine Lösung sein? Wie groß sind die Gesundheitsgefahren, die generell durch Mikroplastik zum Beispiel im Wasser auftauchen? Laut Nature werden im Moment nur rund neun Prozent des gesamten Plastikabfalls recycelt. Der bei weitem größte Anteil wird weltweit – vor allem in Asien – verbrannt.

Über die Konsequenzen für Umwelt und Gesundheit macht sich der Verbraucher selten Gedanken. Das gilt auch für den Golfer: Wer verschwendet schon einen Gedanken an die Zukunft der Plastikflasche, die da im Cart steht, wenn er in der Karibik, in Thailand oder irgendwo in Südfrankreich eine Golfrunde beginnt. Keine Frage, es ist nur eine Plastikflasche. Aber Plastik ist nun mal ein Riesenproblem.

Golf Sustainable is an independent news platform, founded by Petra Himmel.

Is your golf course ready for the climate of tomor Is your golf course ready for the climate of tomorrow? 🌡️⛳️ TV weather expert Karsten Schwanke shares a clear forecast – and concrete solutions.

In an exclusive interview with leading sustainability consultant and golf strategist Petra Himmel, Schwanke breaks down exactly what changing weather patterns mean for the sport. With 2027 projected to be the hottest year on record globally, the DACH region needs to prepare for a Mediterranean climate: significantly drier summers, more intense thunderstorms, and much higher evaporation rates.

For regions like the Berlin area , which are already experiencing enormous drought stress, it is high time to act. Schwanke strongly warns against letting drainage water simply flow into the sewage system – calling it the "greatest sin." Instead, clubs need intelligent water retention strategies, fully in the spirit of the Sponge City concept, to capture heavy winter rainfall in storage ponds for the dry months. Furthermore, we must protect existing, often older tree populations from unprecedented heat.

The good news? The solutions for climate adaptation are already here; we just need to implement them much faster. 🌍💧

With fewer than 90 days to go until the 2026 Solheim Cup, European PING Junior Solheim Cup Captain and Solheim Cup Vice Captain Anne van Dam completed the fan cycle route today in The Netherlands.

The Dutch star is back on home soil this week for the Dutch Ladies Open on the Ladies European Tour (LET) taking place at Goyer Golf & Country Club .
Get on your bike for the Solheim Cup

Van  Dam cycled from ’s-Hertogenbosch (known as Den Bosch) station to Bernardus Golf alongside Eva-Lotta Strömlid, Head of Client Partnerships at the LET, to replicate the scenic 9km route that fans will be completing in September.

Van Dam said: “As we get closer to the 2026 Solheim Cup, it’s great to be back in the Netherlands this week and to visit Bernardus. Cycling is such a key part of Dutch culture, I love being on my bike and I hope fans will take the option to cycle to Bernardus from Den Bosch station. It’s going to be an unforgettable week, and I can’t wait to have you all there with us.”

This journey is also a follow-up ride to the Road to Bernardus, which saw Strömlid complete a 1,000km journey from her home in Sweden to Bernardus Golf to mark one year until the 2026 Solheim Cup and showcase smarter eco-friendly travel options, as part of the LET Sustainability Initiative (LETSI).

Which golf club knows its carbon footprint? In gen Which golf club knows its carbon footprint? In general, the topic of the golf industry's carbon footprint is difficult, as there are few published numbers and only a few event hosts, federations, or tour officials have developed strategies to reduce their emissions. 

GC Kitzeberg in Germany is a well-known but not very big club whose board members decided to act positively: They commissioned a report from a credible external consultancy, realised that "we have to become better," and started working on the first projects. Buying some new electric mowers is one of the steps. Communication with the membership was important, but successful. 

The journey isn't finished; many projects remain for the future. But what we like is the commitment to improve. Good luck for the next steps.

🌿✨ **Bois d’Arlon – Europe’s Living Lab for Next-G 🌿✨ **Bois d’Arlon – Europe’s Living Lab for Next-Gen Golf Resorts** ✨🌿

Nestled across 220 hectares of untouched nature in Belgian Luxembourg, the Bois d’Arlon Golf & Resort is more than just a golf destination – it is emerging as a future blueprint for sustainable, high-end golf resorts in Europe.

We visited the project, which was opened in 2024, to talk with the greenkeeping team and the investor Robert Schintgen about their vision of a high-end golf resort in Wallonie, where pesticides aren't allowed, and the rules for irrigation only allowed the use of collected rainwater and recycled water from the hotel. 

With two distinct courses – a challenging 18-hole Heathland layout and a scenic 9-hole Parkland course – the resort combines **world-class design, biodiversity-rich landscapes, and year-round playability on sandy soil**. The vision blends sport and nature seamlessly, creating an immersive experience for golfers of all levels. ⛳🌱 

But Bois d’Arlon goes far beyond golf. The 4-star château hotel with 64 rooms, spa, restaurant, and event spaces positions the estate as a **fully integrated luxury ecosystem** where hospitality, wellness, and outdoor sports meet. 🏨🌳

What makes it stand out is its positioning as a future laboratory for sustainable resort development – demonstrating how modern golf destinations can evolve with nature rather than against it, while still delivering premium guest experiences.

Bois d’Arlon isn’t just a resort. It’s a model for how European golf destinations can redefine luxury through sustainability, landscape design, and long-term environmental thinking.

What happens when a golf club completely stops usi What happens when a golf club completely stops using fungicides over the winter? 🚫🍄 The result might surprise you.
With pesticide regulations tightening across Europe (including strict bans in Switzerland, France, and Belgium), the question for greenkeepers is no longer if chemical restrictions are coming, but when.

Michael Scheffold, Head Greenkeeper at GC Wörthsee (Germany), decided to do a real-world test run. This past winter, he completely dispensed with fungicides on his greens to see how they would react.

The verdict? Better than expected! Despite a little more snow mold, the greens recovered beautifully and by mid-May, they were almost as good as usual. 🌿

This success didn't happen by accident. It is the result of years of prioritizing Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and mechanical measures to build robust, naturally resilient soil and grass. Supported fully by Club Managing Director Sven Hilgenberg, GC Wörthsee is actively future-proofing its course.

Proactive greenkeeping beats waiting for the ban! 📈⛳️

🚨 What does Donald Trump's new ballroom have to do 🚨 What does Donald Trump's new ballroom have to do with the environmental problems of East Potomac Golf Links? 

A growing environmental controversy is unfolding at East Potomac Golf Links: according to reports by the New York Times and the U.S. National Park Service, thousands of cubic meters of soil and construction debris from the demolition work at the White House East Wing were deposited on the public golf course — including material reportedly contaminated with lead, chromium, pesticides, and other hazardous substances. 

The site is planned to become part of a future championship golf course redevelopment. Environmental groups and local residents, however, are raising serious concerns about potential impacts on ecosystems, waterways, and public access to one of Washington’s most historic municipal golf facilities. 

What makes the case especially sensitive: the golf course sits directly along the Potomac River and has long served as an accessible public space for golfers, walkers, and families alike. Critics warn the project could come at a high environmental and social cost. 

💬 The story is another reminder of how closely golf, urban development, and environmental responsibility are connected — and why transparency and sustainable land management matter for the future of the game.

Yes, the Masters Tournament and Augusta National G Yes, the Masters Tournament and Augusta National Golf Club are all about exclusivity. But it is important to realise that the whole town of Augusta has to agree with this concept and tradition. 

There is a huge economic value that comes with the tournament week, but there are other soft factors that secure the acceptance of The Masters in the town. 

The renovation of the municipal course at The Patch, plus the opening of The Loop at The Patch, is good news for the local community. Affordable, good golf is important to grow the game. Here, the Masters Charity Funds, First Tee of Augusta, and Augusta Technical College have teamed up to finance this important project.

Golf without the use of #pesticides? This is the s Golf without the use of #pesticides? This is the scenario the Swiss golfing community will face from January 2027. Due to a new classification of land use, the use of herbicides will be completely banned, whilst other plant protection products will be subject to much stricter regulations. 
The issue of #health protection is becoming increasingly important on sports grounds. This development is also relevant for golf courses in Germany and Austria. Here too, plant protection products are often the last resort in combating fungal diseases on greens.
We have talked to experts in Switzerland. The good news: some agronomists also see positive consequences arising from the regulation.

Golf has no voice without data.📊⛳️ This was the w Golf has no voice without data.📊⛳️

This was the wake-up call at the recent @FEGGA (Federation of European Golf Greenkeepers Associations) General Assembly in Portugal. 

As the pressure from EU regulations on water usage and pesticide bans grows, the message for the industry is clear: We can no longer rely on "feeling" sustainable. We have to prove it.

Why does this matter for your club?
Policy Power: As Petra Himmel reports from FEGGA meeting, transparent data sets are the only way to persuade governments to grant exemptions or support.
Quality Control: Without chemical solutions for threats like *Dollar Spot*, data-driven greenkeeping is the only way to maintain the playing surfaces we love.
Social License: In a world competing for land and resources, golf must prove its added value to society—or risk losing its place.

At Golf Sustainable, we don’t just report the news; we analyze the strategies that will define the next decade of our sport. From the Dutch "Zero Pesticide" goal by 2032 to French resource management—we bring the global perspective to your screen.

How is your club handling the data challenge? Are you tracking every drop and gram, or is the transition to digital reporting still a hurdle? Let’s discuss in the comments! 👇
