The Championship test for the Heineken Classic is a composite of the Ellenbrook course for the front nine holes and the Lakes course. It is a finely balanced, demanding test which winds along the banks of the beautiful Ellenbrook, through gently undulating natural bushland and with three dramatic lakes around the resort centre. The composite course measures 7,101 yards, with all four of the par fives ranging from 517 yards to 591 yards in length. All are stern tests for even the longest hitters. Seven of the ten par fours are over 400 yards and the four short holes, measuring between 170 and 219 yards, comprise an extremely high examination of accuracy. The most scenic hole on the course is probably the 413-yards seventh. Gum trees border the fairway and deep bunkers guarding the green on the right make it dangerous to allow the spectacular view to interrupt the concentration. The finish to the golf course is designed to sort the men from the boys. The 196-yards 16th, 427-yards 17th and 517-yards 18th combine to provide the kind of finish which can - and has - altered the outcome of a tournament. The 16th green is over 50 yards long and sits hard against an intimidating lake on the right, just waiting to punish any wayward shot from the tee. Water skirts the left side of the 17th, to add to the pressure of the finishing stretch.Those bold enough to take a driver can be rewarded with a relatively straightforward approach to the green. The closing hole has the capacity in itself to settle any tournament - offering an eagle opportunity for anyone brave enough to take on the water guarding the green. A perfect finish to a superb course, ensuring drama and excitement on the European Tour's only visit Down Under this season.   1 4 414 379 2 4 375 343 3 5 591 540 4 3 208 190 5 4 396 361 6 4 437 400 7 4 413 378 8 3 195 178 9 5 525 480 Out 36 3554 3249   10 5 538 493 11 4 428 391 12 4 433 396 13 3 170 155 14 4 393 359 15 4 445 407 16 3 196 179 17 4 427 390 18 5 517 473 In 36 3547 3243   72 7101 6492
