Caddie's Summary: A gorgeous course
with unique bunkering and nice contrast in roughs, fairways and white sand bunkers. The
fairways are wonderfully sculpted and add some difficult lies to an already challenging
course. A bit easier than the King and Bear, the course still has difficult approach
shots and large undulating greens. A rare course design, Snead and Sarazen, provides a
lot of slight bends and huge bunkers. Majority of the sand traps have large lips and can
be traumatic with an unfortunate position. Around the course, the is plenty of brush
that adds to the scenic appeal and to difficulty. Add to the benefits of the WGV and it
is a great vacation spot. Amenities include and the World Golf Hall of Fame, IMAX
theatre, lounge, restaurants, the Renaissance Hotel, the Grand Villas and plenty of all
sporting and Golf activities. |
