This hole is understandably the most photographed hole as it is the most stunning. Holes 7-9 have been nicknamed the ‘amen corner’; the par 3, par 5 and par 4 holes are a seriously challenging match to players. This course is typically considered by golf pros as a difficult but fair test, yet the normal golfer will most likely not buckle under this challenge! Nine holes in the course include water hazards, therefore it is strongly recommended you take a surplus of balls.
