I'm an Australian who has been fortunate enough to live in a few different countries and even more fortunate to have been able to travel widely throughout the world with my job and on holidays. My golf sticks pretty much always go with me and at last count I've been able to experience life and golf in 56 different countries and played about 600 different courses (315 of those in Australia, including all of the top 100 public access courses).
Even though I know it's highly unlikely, I love the thought of trying to play golf in every country in the world with a golf course - it's a long, long term goal.
My excuse for my 13 handicap is that I'm still working full time. My favourite golf courses include the rather diverse: Prestwick, Barnbougle Dunes, Paa-Ko Ridge, all the courses at St Andrews, and NSW Golf Club.
What this comes down to is whether the designer-name course at the high-end resort is better than the members course in the city: Déva v Tina, for best in New Caledonia....
A parkland members course in Noumea that mixes straight-forward tropical golf with some spectacular seaside holes, mostly on the back nine where use is made of bays and c...
This course was a disappointment. After playing a couple of courses in New Caledonia last week, the standard was higher and there are of course fewer golfers in Vanuatu a...
This course is somewhat hard to qualify as it has elements of linksland in the undulating fairways and swales around the greens, but also some sparse parkland and the big...
Just a really pleasant parkland course that was challenging but if played well, very fair. The bunkering and sandy base were standouts, with fairway and greenside bunker...
I'm fortunate to have played Federal many times and it really is one of those courses where I just don't tire of it, probably because to play Federal well, you have to be...
To declare my intentions early: I love this golf course. I love the smell of the mature eucalypts lining many of the holes; I love the unpretentiousness of the club; I lo...
"Secrets" (I hope the club didn't waste too much money on that marketing gumph) is not a seaside links as the former name, Secret Harbour Golf Links suggests, but is set...
This is a country town golf course of high quality that has part parkland feel but also some elements of linksland being quite close to the ocean and on old dunes. I play...
Royal Freo is a mature tree-lined parkland course set on broad undulating land a couple of kilometres inland from Fremantle harbour. Most holes have uphill or downhill as...
There had been a significant burst of rain on and around this course the afternoon and evening before I played, but the course was only showing minor effects and the grou...
The St. John course occupies the better parcel of land at this 36-hole club and is the superior of the two courses. It is for the most part quite open and flows like a li...
I played this course as the final of four rounds in a single day in the Fife region, starting at Drumoig, Scotscraig, St Andrews (New) and then finally here. It was a cha...
The first time I played the New Course was during a week in St Andrews, exploring the town and all the courses of the Links Trust. I thought it was a wonderful, classic,...
I liked Scotscraig, I really did, but just didn't have the time to do it justice. This course was the venue for the second of four games played on the summer solstice a f...
Considering the golfing pedigree on offer both in Scotland and closer to Drumoig in the Fife region, this course can only really be considered average. It's a fine course...
The thing about RCD for me is that I'd arrived, been overawed by finally playing the majestic links and then all too quickly it was over; and I have to be reminded of tha...
I'd have to disagree with the editors in their opening note on this Royal Porthcawl webpage, as from my conversations with other golfers, many, many people know of or hav...
I'd played this course in March and the overnight frost made the first few greens rather interesting! Quite surprised to have been let out to play with the greens still...
Let me add to the comments above for a little more qualification of this course: I'd played Mangilao in Guam a few days before playing here and that was the full USD200 r...
