Pro’s Tip

This hole is a Par-5 for the men and Par-4 for ladies. The hole usually plays downwind.  Although not long, the men’s drive over the corner of the adjacent canal and Out-of-Bounds, tend to tense up your nerves.  With quite a long carry to the fairway, which has a wide feel to it, clever mowing here can grab the ball into the semi-rough. The best medicine is then to get the ball back into play and lay up short of the drainage ditch, which along with two green side bunkers, guard this elevated green.  If you’ve managed to complete this half of the course with your handicap intact - well done, but don’t relax just yet.

Close by to the green is the half-way house, which provides welcomed refreshment at weekends and during Open competitions.
