The first Par 5 at 500 yards and at first glance one might be tempted to consider it a great birdie opportunity. But be warned if you don’t find the fairway off the tee a 6 might be a more likely score. Left of centre is the best line from the tee but be careful not to stray behind the clump of trees that stand on the fairway. A high left to right fade is the ideal shot to this long narrow green for the big hitters searching for that green in two and a birdie four.

The shortest hole on the course but the long and narrow green is very well protected and is guarded by four bunkers. To miss this green on the right or to be long over the back will almost certainly lead to a bogey.

Closing hole of the front nine and once again an accurate tee shot that favours the left side of the fairway is required to set up a shot to the green. Club selection is key on the second shot if you are to avoid the greenside bunkers.
