This is an excellent course and it was clearly exceptionally designed, as to be expected with it hosting the Ryder Cup. This however has its downside as it attracts every hacker and duffer who thinks they can play, some of the 4 balls in front of us were awful. There was no marshalling of this and it meant that our round took over 5 hours. We were not in a rush but it became a joke, when the 4 ball are topping balls and losing balls off the tee on each hole and they dont wave you through that shows poor course management and loses a star for me.

It is very long and tricky, with alot of water to hit over, which really comes into play after the 5th.

My favourite holes were the 18th and the 12th. These are great and are made the round worth playing. First 4 holes are quite bland.

This is a great course which will test your abilities and i really enjoyed my round but don't think that i would rush to return, but would recommend to other players who are of a decent standard.
