The Gary Player Country Club
The Gary Player Country Club is acknowledged as a difficult and demanding course. Since 1981 it has been home to the Nedbank Million Dollar Golf Challenge. The course requires stamina and accuracy from players.
The comparatively flat nature of the golf course is misleading - water hazards, cunningly sited bunkers and pins hidden away on kidney shaped greens makes up for the lack of gradient.
Off the back markers the course measures over 7,000 metres which makes it one of the longest in the world.
A distinguishing feature of the course is its greens complexes, with strategically placed bunkers, swales and mounds that protect the super slick clover shaped greens.
A feature hole? Well, they're all good at the Gary Player Country Club, but for risk and reward the stand-out is the 9th. Play this par 5 from the forward tees and then have a go for the island green with your second and thrill to the challenge of this superb test of golf.
The Lost City Golf Course
Golfers are astounded by the breathtaking beauty of the par 72 Lost City Golf course.
The rich green fairways give a dramatic contrast to the bushveld backdrop and the barren waste bunkers are a special feature of this intriguing course.
The Lost City Golf Course is flexible: playing off the forward tee a course length of 5,953 metres, extending to 6,983 metres off the back tee. The course provides spectacular views.
The most hazardous area of the Lost City Golf Course is the 13th hole. Inhabiting the water hazard are 38 crocodiles, some of them nearly 2 metres long.
The unusual water hazard is just one of the features that make the Lost City Golf Course exciting and interesting to play. No effort was spared to make the course a masterpiece.
Playing the back 9 is like going on a golf safari. It has often been noted that the game is more exciting when played downhill and this is certainly true here!
On the whole, a round at Lost City is an experience which one will not easily forget. But it doesn't end with the golf.
