| | | | Introduction |
|
Just played
this Colin Montgomery's link style course again as the new
club house is now ready to use so I made myself an excuse
to go & check it out. The new club is spacious & very
nicely decorated.
The club
located at Zhuhai, which is only one hour & 10 minutes
ferry away and a further 30 to 35 minutes ride away (about
100 RMB on Taxi) from the Zhuhai ferry terminal, the club
will provide a free shuttle bus if there are enough players,
the
additional 9 holes is with lighting (27 now) is also ready,
making the club one of the most convenient course to get to
from Hong Kong.

As mentioned, the club house is very nice with a big Chinese & western restaurant,
the service was reasonable good too. | | |

design |

The
course reminds me of the airport course at Shenzhen, both
are relatively flat with little elevation changes but there
are plenty of water & bunkers.....(I counted, 97 of them.....just
from 1-18 holes.....they are big
too!).

The course
is long, from the blue tee, it's 6,000 meters (about 6,600
yards), with the combination of water (most of them are on
either side of the fairway), bunkers makes this course quite
hard to score well. The 19-27 holes are even longer with some
doglegs. Finally, the course is very walker friendly, if the
weather is not too hot, save your money on the cart &
walk it.

rating |

The
most impressive of the course is the color contrast between
the beautiful
lush green fairways against the lovely and long
local red grass, very pleasing to the eyes and a prefect
place to relax & play a nice round golf.......I just wish
the course can have a bit more elevation changes as most of
the fairway design is very similar......and wish those bunkers
can be a bit smaller too : ) as there will be no room for
big slice and hooks....to score well here.....you have practice
more with your bunker shots beforehand, as
with any link course, if the wind is up, the course will play
much harder.
The new 9 holes with lighting is very nice & convenient
for those who wants to play in the Summer or wish to tee off
in the evening. Eagle.
