Interview with Stephan Vogl, General Manager of Diamond Country Club

We spoke to Stephan Vogl, General Manager of Diamond Country Club in Atzenbrugg, about what makes it one of Austria‘s best golf resorts and how he sees the future of the golf industry.

What makes Diamond Country Club one of the best clubs in Austria?

The Diamond Course in terms of the daily maintenance quality and attractiveness of the individual holes is always on tour level. You will not find this in Austria too often, I think only at the DCC.

What makes Diamond Country Club so special?

The golf resort with the 3 different courses always offers a fair and challenging day of golf for all golfers, regardless of skill level. And the additional facilities (boathouse, apartments) are really unique and very special.

How do you see the golf industry evolve in the next 5 years?

I assume that the slight “tailwind” we actual notice will continue and that we will have both – more members and more rounds of golf in the next 5 years.

Do you play golf? And if you do, what is your favorite course in the world?

Of course, I play golf… and sometimes I even enjoy my round. My favorite course is Kingsbarns in Scotland, close to St. Andrews… the home of golf

Your favorite golf destination and why?

Scotland, where it all started. Every moment is so fascinating. It’s about golf and nothing else. Everyone understands the passion for golf. It’s a great feeling…
