Hole 15 Information

Hitting north, the drive on the 15th must negotiate a number of carefully placed bunkers, protecting not only the long drive, but also making players think very carefully about where they lay up with iron. There is no easy tee shot here.

Two deep traps protecting the left side of the fairway can be trouble. Similarly, if you try to take on the slight dogleg and bunker carry, you could find yourself needing your bathers – sand and water could come into play.

Once the tee shot has been negotiated, a small undulating green is the next target, set on a plateau with deep rough either side catching a wayward second shot. And you’re not guaranteed a birdie if you hit it close either, because both the subtle and obvious undulations of the green could catch you out if the concentration is not quite there.

Any player walking away from this hole with par or birdie, will definitely be walking to the 16th tee with a smile on their face!
