Today, the course measures around 5,900 metres from the back tees, playing to a par of 70, with holes arranged as two returning nines. Water comes into play a few times on the back nine, where ponds threaten the approach shot to the green at #11, #13 and #16.
Other highlights include the only par fives on the course at the 4th and 13th; the shortest of the par threes in the southernmost part of the property at the 12th; and the demanding par four 18th which plays to a sand-protected offset home green.
