Hole 1: Par 5 - 437 metres
A short Par 5 to start the round. Rated the easiest hole on the Course, it is an opportunity for the good player to start with a Birdie. It is best to fade the drive close to the fairway bunkers to open up the green. If you miss the fairway on the left, you will be severely penalised. The large green is reachable in two for the strong hitter, but slopes severely from the back left to the right-hand side. Bunkers are located front left, front right and the right-hand side of the green. There is a hollow short of the green, which can lead people to tend to underclub their approach shot.
