Hello Wie Nation:
And Now, The rest of the Story….
Hole twelve…Par 5...496yds…A drive to the right of centre is essential as the left is well protected with bunkers.
The huge double green is surrounded by bunkers and the narrow entrance will require extreme accuracy. Be careful with lay ups as some difficult long explosion shots is required from these bunkers. Although many birdies will be recorded here, this is a hole to respect.

Hole thirteen…Par 4...286ydsA real "FUN HOLE" with a lake and rocky stream runs to the left of the narrow fairway whilst to the right of the fairway the trees are quite dense. Whilst the green is drivable – good luck to those who attempt, as anything less than perfect, will be severely penalized.
The sensible game plan is an accurate long iron tee shot, followed with a precise wedge approach to the green protected with well positioned bunkers and ponds.

Hole fourteen…par 4...342ydsA "SKILL TESTING HOLE".
Conservative golfers will play a long iron approximately 180m from the back tee and approach the well protected and "slopey" green with a short iron approach of 130m.
An aggressive tee shot to carry the stream, 220m, with a driver or three wood needs pin point accuracy, with the bunkers to the right and the stream to the left.

Hole fifteen…Par 3...136yds…A precise short iron is necessary for this island green.
The central beach bunker must be avoided. Long putts will be difficult, as the green has many severe slopes.

Hole sixteen…Par 5...521ydsA "RISK-REWARD HOLE" where the optimum tee shot is to carry the edge of the lake, which is a carry of around 240 meters from the elevated tees. This would leave the best line of approach to the green. The left side of the fairway is well protected by bunkers and the long hitter should be aware of the pot bunker situated at 280 meters.
Lay up shot should be carefully calculated, with the lake on the left and the strategically positioned bunkers offering the toughest shot in golf, which is the long sand explosion. The undulating green has many difficult hole locations.
The hole will reward many birdies and eagles; however a slip of concentration will see many bogeys or worse.

Hole seventeen…par 3...157yds…A beautiful Par 3 with lake and wetlands in the foreground and the trees and landscaping to the rear of the green which is well protected with bunkers on the front and right.
There are a number of difficult hole locations, especially middle right, where only the golfer with exceptional skills should attempt to target the flag. As the green slopes steeply from back to front, it is desirable to keep the ball below the hole for an uphill birdie putt. Any tee shot too long will require fine touch to make par.

Hole eighteen…par 4...390yds…A tee shot of 220 meters is the safest way to play this hole, leaving a short iron approach of 140 meters. To carry the left bunkers, a drive of at least 260 meters is necessary and rewarding but be careful NOT to go right as the lake and a large difficult beach bunker is positioned to catch the errant shot.
The huge double green is well protected with bunkers and the lake short. A precise approach will set up a chance for birdie.
