Course Details

Course Name: North Holes: 18 Metres: 5753
The North course is shorter and demands more accuracy of the tee. Several raines and six lakes make this course a totally different from the South. Slightly hillier, has well-contoured greens. Robert Dean Putman designed this course. White Tees - 5753, Par 71, C.R. 70.5, Slope 126; Yellow Tees - 5429, Par 71, C.R. 68.8, Slope 121; Blue Tees – 5183, Par 71, C.R. 73.2, Slope 131; Red Tees - 4964, Par 71, C.R. 71.1, Slope 127.

Course Name: South Holes: 18  Metres: 6361
The South Course, was originally designed by Robert Dean Putman, and remodelled in 1993 by the Arnold Palmer Company , is quite flat with generous fairways, the main difficulty being the length and the ten artificial lakes that define the layout. The greens are huge and have little trouble, but it is perhaps this apparent simplicity that makes them tough.
White Tees - 6361, Par 72, C.R. 74.6, Slope 128 ; Yellow Tees - 6055, Par 72, C.R. 72.0; Slope 125; Red Tees - 5490, Par 72, C.R. 74.7, Slope 125.

Course Name: West Holes: 18 Metres: 5971
The West course is newer and requires maximum ball control, distance becoming only secondary. It is a course of two halves, where most of the ground must be made on the first nine. The second half, with its tree-lined fairways is very hilly and will demand all a player can give. White Tees - 5971, Par 73, C.R. 72.3, Slope 130; Yellow Tees - 5689, Par 73, C.R. 70.7, Slope 129; Red Tees - 4922, Par 73, C.R. 72.0, Slope 129
