What to Expect
Expect a solid challenge here, particularly from the back tees where length and accuracy are key. The slope rating will keep you on your toes, so I’d recommend a solid mid-handicap range; you’ll need to manage your approach shots carefully. Watch out for water hazards and strategically placed bunkers that can easily ruin a hole if you're not cautious. Bring your A-game putting skills along, as those greens can be quite deceptive, and don't underestimate the wind, which can add an extra layer of difficulty.
