OF THE HOLES | CLICK HERE FOR SCORE CARD
|
HOLE 1 - 383 Yards, Par 4 - Start
with a reliable fairway wood aimed across the rice paddies
and right of the cavernous bunkers will get you away.
From here the hole bends steeply downhill to a well guarded
green with hazards at the back and left. Shots short and
right will kick to the green.
|
|
|
HOLE 2 - 188 Yards, Par 3 - The
green is three clubs deep so check pin position and wind
to select the correct club. A creek threatens the left
side of the green, so favor the right and the ball will
tend to run to the centre
|
|
|
HOLE 3 - 400 Yards, Par 4 - An
Uphill drive towards the right bunker will avoid sand
on the left and reach awide open plateau. A creek running
in front guards the approach shot, rice paddies left and
wetlands short. The well-contoured green must be accurately
read to walk away with par.
|
|
|
HOLE 4 - 439 Yards, Par 4 - Aim at the distant
bunkers and hit a long draw to the wide fairway. The long second
shot across a gentle valley takes on the wildly dramatic bunkers
guarding the right side of the green. Opportunity to lay up on the
left side and chip on for the high handicapper.
|
|
|
HOLE 5 - 441 Yards, Par 4 - Now's the time
for your best drive across the valley to a saddled fairway avoiding
the temple on the right. Right side pin positions will require a
shaped shot to escape landing in the green side bunker.
|
|
|
HOLE 6 - 501 Yards, Par 5 - A brave shot
across the bunkers on the left of the fairway brings the green into
range for the second. The hole doglegs to the left and continues
dramatically downhill, directly to the ocean. Judge the wind carefully
and club to be on the same level as the pin on this small green.
|
|
|
HOLE 7 - 214 Yards, Par 3 - Amongst the most
dramatic holes in world golf. Check the wind direction carefully
when playing from cliff top to cliff top across the Indian Ocean.
The secret is not to be short.
|
|
|
HOLE 8 - 544 Yards, Par 5 - Normally downwind,
the longest hole on the course demands a well struck tee shot left
of the fairway bunkers. Take advantage of the slopes in the fairway
and lay right. Deep greenside bunkers left and OB at the back make
this small green a difficult target to hit.
|
|
|
HOLE 9 - 388 Yards, Par 4 - Position your
tee shot at the top of the hill to the right of the fairway bunker.
A short approach across a deep valley and river must be well struck
with confidence to find the green set below. Check the distance
and accept the challenge.
|
|
|
HOLE 10 - 445 Yards, Par 5 - Best shot is
a long fade across the creek to the undulating fairway. A spectacular
second shot down hill to a green set across the river is your reward.
It's all carry to this green. Safe play is to lay up short left,
chip on and walk with par.
|
|
|
HOLE 11 - 211 Yards, Par 3 - A big target
to hit. Favour the left side of the green for safety and avoid trouble
right in the huge bunkers. Carefully read the subtle burrows in
this green. Bonus for selecting the correct club will be a birdie
putt.
|
|
|
HOLE 12 - 381 Yards, Par 4 - A great short
hole along a ridge with Balinese temples and a river to the right.
Aim your tee shot at the last house avoiding the bunkers. Anything
right will be blocked. A downhill short iron to an island green
that sits on a rock shelf in the ocean demands respect.
|
|
|
HOLE 13 - 337 Yards, Par 4 - A deceptively
difficult short par 4. A strong wind behind may tempt you to carry
the ocean with your drive to get close to the green. The safe tee
shot is played to the valley between the bunkers, leaving a low
punch shot into the elevated open green. Good club selection is
important.
|
|
|
HOLE 14 - 186 Yards, Par 3 - The Shark tee
is surrounded by the ocean for this intimidating shot across the
beach to the cliff top green. It is all carry from here, so check
the wind and take enough club. A gentle hole from the Resort and
Forward tees with the ocean as a backdrop.
|
|
|
HOLE 15 - 447 Yards, Par 4 - Play a fade
up the valley from the tee, keeping out of trouble of the left side
bunkers. The hole sweeps uphill to an elevated green. Plenty of
sand short and right of the green. Play your second to allow your
ball to bounce in from the left.
|
|
|
HOLE 16 - 431 Yards, Par 4 - A generous landing
area for your drive, rewarding longer hitters with runs from the
downhill slope. Lay up unless you are confident of carrying the
creek in front of the green. Bail out area is left side, avoiding
the right green side bunker and temple at the back.
|
|
|
HOLE 17 - 349 Yards, Par 4 - Aim straight
at the big bunker on the left side avoiding the creek right off
the tee. This is a positional shot with a long iron or fairway wood,
setting up a short approach to a tight green. A good hole to attack,
but beware the creek in front, it can be dangerous!
|
|
|
HOLE 18 - 520 Yards, Par 5 - A great finishing
hole. Aim right centre from the elevated tee to this undulating
fairway. The hole sweeps downhill to a creek which crosses in front
of the green and continues up the right side. Only the very long
will attempt this in two. Lay up to the left and pitch close with
your approach.
