| Description |
This rather flat course deceptively requires stamina and
accuracy from players -water hazards, cunningly placed bunkers
and hidden away pins make up for the lack of gradient.
The slick clover shaped greens are well protected by strategically
placed bunkers, swales and mounds.
The par-five ninth, with its island green, never fails to
get the adrenalin going.
Multiple tees however make this course both enjoyable and
playable for players of all levels.
Since 1981 it has been home to the Nedbank Million Dollar
Golf Challenge.
