Salgados Golf Club in Portugal’s Algarve is continuing its strong momentum under Troon management with further strategic investment focused on enhancing the overall guest experience.
As part of its ongoing commitment to operational excellence and exceptional service, Salgados has strengthened its on-site leadership team with the appointment of experienced Troon professional Jan Kronus as Operations Manager.
Kronus brings a wealth of international expertise, having spent more than five years at PGA National Czech Republic, a DP World Tour host venue, where he played a key role in delivering exceptional guest experiences and operational standards.
In addition to strengthening the team, the club has further enhanced its on-course offering through the introduction of new Callaway Quantum rental sets. Delivered through Troon’s Preferred Vendor Agreement, the upgraded equipment ensures guests have access to premium, tour-quality products.

“We are pleased to continue building on the strong foundations established at Salgados Golf Club with further investments that directly enhance the guest experience,” said Troon Senior Vice President Ricardo Catarino. “The appointment of Jan Kronus brings proven leadership and operational expertise to the team, while the introduction of new premium rental equipment further elevates the quality of the overall offering.
“These enhancements reflect our continued focus on delivering exceptional service, improving operational standards and supporting our client’s long-term vision for Salgados as a must-play golf destination in the Algarve.”

Troon, the world’s largest golf and golf-related hospitality management company, was appointed by Highgate Portugal in 2023 to oversee golf operations, agronomy, and sales and marketing at Salgados. Since then, the facility has undergone significant transformation, including major investment into infrastructure, operational improvements, and revenue growth strategies.
