    The round opens with a fairly straightforward par-4, particularly when the westerly is blowing. An easterly makes it much more challenging.

    The second hole provides two tee-off options, with the front offering a chance to attack. Downhill to the green but look out for the water trap on the left.

    A strong challenge into the prevailing westerly. A tree needs to be negotiated in the fairway and a water trap guards the right side of the green.

    Looking down onto a fairly large green from the tee box presents a good par opportunity, but beware of a westerly blowing in from the left side.

    This hole will test you as a garden feature guards the right side. Rough and bushes to the left. Get a free drop from the garden and fairway drainage system.

    The big hitter can challenge the bushes which jut onto the fairway from the left. Otherwise play safe and target the right side of the fairway.

    This lengthy par-3 is uphill all the way and has bushes left and right short of the green. The green slopes left to right so the right line is everything.

    Another lengthy par-3, but the approach area is wide open. However, position is key for the tee shot as the green slopes from back to front.

• Holes 9 & 18 – Friendly finish

  This is a fairly comfortable finish to the round, except when a strong westerly is blowing. But a generous fairway provides some leeway.
