HOLE 1

From the elevated first tee, the narrow fairway at the landing zone requires an accurate drive. To be in a position to reach the green with a second shot on this short 420m Par 5 requires a drive to the right of this narrow fairway adjacent to a large tree. The big hitters who have an accurate tee shot will be able to see the corner of the green as the hole has a left-handed semi-dog leg. For short hitters and those with a less accurate tee shot, a lay-up as a second shot is a good option. The elevated green is well protected with a large and two smaller trees and a bunker to the left and a steep slope to the right, and a short approach shot usually pays dividends. The hardest pin position is front left, requiring a very accurate second or third shot to be below the hole. Pro's Tip: A sliced drive off the tee onto the second fairway opens up the green for a second shot approach for big hitters. Danger Zone: Don’t be in the trees or the bunker on the left !!!
