National Golf Club Course Details

 


1 S.I.7 – PAR5

HOLE 1

A good drive down the right side of the fairway sets you up for a second shot down a narrow fairway, leaving a short iron approach to a large undulating green.

495 Regular (m)
535 Medal (m)
507 Champ (m)
444 Ladies (m)

2 S.I.7 – PAR3

Hole 2

Water, water everywhere is the setting for this signature hole. A precise tee shot is required here to set up a good score.

116 Regular (m)
129 Medal (m)
156 Champ (m)
92 Ladies (m)

3 S.I.9 – PAR4

Hole 3

This slight dog-leg right hole requires a solid drive down the left side of the fairway, leaving you with a well-sighted mid iron approach to this small and well-protected green.

294 Regular (m)
360 Medal (m)
378 Champ (m)
280 Ladies (m)

4 S.I.3 – PAR5

Hole 4

This narrow typically undulating links hole is water all the way down the left and is lined with pine trees down the right. It requires a good accurate tee shot slightly right of the fairway bunker. A long second shot down the middle will leave a short iron approach to the green. Avoid the greenside bunkers at all costs as they are deep and unforgiving!!!

414 Regular (m)
454 Medal (m)
520 Champ (m)
382 Ladies (m)

5 S.I.15 – PAR3

Hole 5

This is a hole that typifies National Golf Club. This sloping kidney-shaped green is well protected by a bunker and two prominent pines, requiring you to carry your shot with a long/middle iron all the way.

146 Regular (m)
167 Medal (m)
183 Champ (m)
140 Ladies (m)

6 S.I.13 – PAR4

Hole 6

A dog-leg left with a blind tee shot makes the line off the tee all-important. Often a long iron or fairway wood is used. An ideal drive is slightly left of the big pine tree in the middle of the fairway. This is a real shot maker’s hole and requires a well-struck short iron to hold on to this small elevated green.

274 Regular (m)
286 Medal (m)
331 Champ (m)
264 Ladies (m)

7 S.I.1 – PAR4

Hole 7

One of the toughest holes on the course. This dog-leg right hole requires a big drive down the left side of the fairway to set up a long second to a narrow green.

352 Regular (m)
367 Medal (m)
396 Champ (m)
323 Ladies (m)

8 S.I.1 – PAR4

Hole 8

A drive-in between the fairway bunkers on this dogleg left hole and the big pine tree will leave a mid-iron shot to a severely undulating green. With water left and right of this hole, nothing less than 2 good shots will do!

300 Regular (m)
364 Medal (m)
383 Champ (m)
273 Ladies (m)

9 S.I.5 – PAR4

Hole 9

Playing almost due north, this hole can be either with or against the prevailing wind depending on the time of day. A drive just short of the ridge is needed to provide a good sight to this sightly elevated two-tiered green.

371 Regular (m)
387 Medal (m)
413 Champ (m)
340 Ladies (m)

10 S.I.4 – PAR4

Hole 10

A drive down the left side of the fairway leaves a short iron to this tiny elevated green. An inaccurate second will leave an awkward chip.

300 Regular (m)
311 Medal (m)
344 Champ (m)
282 Ladies (m)

11 S.I.18 – PAR3

Hole 11

Another small elevated green means you have to be deadly accurate with your mid-iron. Anything else will leave you scratching for par.

134 Regular (m)
142 Medal (m)
157 Champ (m)
100 Ladies (m)

12 S.I.4 – PAR5

Hole 12

A genuine 3 shooter if ever there was one! Long hitters will need to lay up short of the canal with a fairway wood. A second long shot right side of the fairway will set up a short iron to a thin rollercoaster of a green. A par will feel like a birdie!!!

476 Regular (m)
490 Medal (m)
512 Champ (m)
468 Ladies (m)

13 S.I.10 – PAR4

Hole 13

Driving back over the canal, this hole is tight, demanding accuracy off the tee. A good drive down the center of the fairway will leave a mid-iron to a green well protected by two front bunkers.

305 Regular (m)
336 Medal (m)
390 Champ (m)
272 Ladies (m)

14 S.I.2 – PAR5

Hole 14

Quite possibly one of the toughest holes in Europe – a long drive between the big pines is a necessity if you want to reach this long par 4 in two. With water left and back, bunkers protecting the right, and a good scorecard in your hand, playing for a five might be the sensible option!!!

449 Regular (m)
467 Medal (m)
479 Champ (m)
372 Ladies (m)

15 S.I.8 – PAR5

Hole 15

A big leaning dead tree frames this magnificent par 5. A drive to the right of the tree and safely played second over the hill sets up a short iron to this narrow tricky green.

447 Regular (m)
461 Medal (m)
482 Champ (m)
434 Ladies (m)

16 S.I.16 – PAR3

Hole 16

The longest of the short holes required a well-struck shot to a large two-tiered green. but beware of the water at the back!

138 Regular (m)
173 Medal (m)
192 Champ (m)
109 Ladies (m)

17 S.I.6 – PAR4

Hole 17

This tricky dog-leg right hole is as narrow as they come! An accurate tee shot down the left side of the fairway will set up a mid-iron to this narrow and undulating green.

320 Regular (m)
359 Medal (m)
367 Champ (m)
296 Ladies (m)

18 S.I.12 – PAR4

Hole 18

One of Europe’s signature holes demanding a good drive towards the two bunkers on the right and with just a short iron remaining over water to a small well-protected green and people watching from the clubhouse what could be easier!!!!! You might even receive a well-deserved round of applause!!!
