Hole #1 - 547 Yards Par 5

A tough opening hole with the fairway sloping towards the out of bounds running to the right. An approach hit left will open up the green.

Hole #2 - 465 Yards Par 4

Position is vital off the tee on this long dog-leg right. The fairway bunker and out of bounds guard the right. Bunkers will punish any short approach to the green.

Hole #3 - 325 Yards Par 4

A monster bunker on the right is to be avoided, aim for the two bunkers in the distance. An accurate tee shot placed next to the bunker will give a good birdie opportunity.

Hole #4 - 535 Yards Par 5

This long par 5 gives the option of laying up shot of the fairway bunkers or playing over the left pot bunker. The lake and the bunkers guard the right side of the green.

Hole #5 - 375 Yards Par 4

A short par 4 with the lake cutting into the fairway.

Hole #6 - 188 Yards Par 3

The lake will catch any shot hooked left. This tight green has many undulations.

Hole #7 - 385 Yards Par 4

A beautiful hole playing uphill to a three-tiered green surrounded by mature pines. The 11 bunkers make this hold a challenge.

Hole #8 - 175 Yards Par 3

A sweet par three playing from an elevated tee to the green 25 meters below.

Hole #9 - 470 Yards Par 4

Three bunkers guard the fairway while the forest to the right is out of bounds on this elegant parkland hole.

Hole #10 - 582 Yards Par 5

This superb par 5 is the longest hole on the course and requires a lot of thought. A sea of fairway bunkers lead to the green. Also guarded by bunkers and the lake.

Hole #11 - 393 Yards Par 4

The perfect drive is just right of the old gun tower, however, don't be distracted as this fairway is well-bunkered. The undulating green features bunkers front and back.

Hole #12 - 466 Yards Par 4

Another elevated tee playing downhill to the green surrounded by sand.

Hole #13 - 252 Yards Par 3

A long par 3 with a fairway sloping right, helping short tee-shots reach the green. A huge bunker on the left.

Hole #14 - 452 Yards Par 4

A great driving hole, dog-leg left. Deep fairway bunkers catch shots that play safe and the hilly fairway may kick you off line. More cavernous bunkers guard the green.

Hole #15 - 343 Yards Par 4

A deceptive par four that can be reached in 1! Though any short tee-shots to this fiercely undulating green will end in the water.

Hole #16 - 163 Yards Par 3

(Signature Hole)

Another of Faldo's spectacular par threes. Elevated tees overlook the region's only island green. One of Asia's classic holes.

Hole #17 - 472 Yards Par 4

With the mountains to the left and water to the right, this par four is another beautiful hole. Dramatic shaping and bunkers guard the green.

Hole #18 - 514 Yards Par 5

A very tough finishing hole to close this spectacular course. The lake is in play on the right from tee to green while bunkers catch shorts that try to play safe to the left. The green is almost surrounded by water. A demanding finale to one of Asia's finest courses.
