1A fairly simple opening hole for the player who is satisfied with par, but the narrow entrance to the well-defended green will reject any second shot that is not "on target" and wiNothing to gain if you direct the drive towards the green clearly visible from the start: much better a drive between the tree and the bunker followed by a second above the four oa2A classic par 4 with a bunker on the left at 240m. on the fairway which presents the average player with the quietest line for the drive.However, a second rather arduous uphill stroke follows. The player prepared to take a risk should place his drive to the right, thus leaving himself a shorter iron to the green. It's a very long green with a very narrow entrance between the bunkers. better to take one more club than you might think at first sight: it's a very deceptive shot.3A genuine par 3 that requires a straight and genuine shot towards an elevated and wide green without particular slopes. A bunker on the left defends the green and another behind it protects the next tee.qOne small thing choose the right stick: going long would be fatal!4This fairly pronounced “dog-leg” is as long or short as your courage will make it. Playing safely towards the left bunker means making a drive of around 230 meters. leaving youThe ideal drive would be a long, high “fade” aiming over the tree at the top of the dogleg. By doing this you would reduce your second shot to an iron and you would approach th56Finally the possibility of a real birdie on this short and inviting par 4. The fairway narrows to 30 meters. to the left of the bunker, but this is undoubtedly the line and leaves The key word is “shoot as close to the flag as possible”. Don't try to be smart and leave a putt uphill.You may find yourself with sand-iron in hand for your third shot from the sand that laps almost the entire front edge of the green.7From this high tee, built of stone, the enormous green opens up, invitingly below you, giving relief to all the troubles that can await you on both the right and the left and lose It can be said that it has the appearance of a very sincere par 3, but there is a trap lurking; the apparently open approach is inclined to the right and the tee shot that remains 8Slightly downhill along its entire route towards a green clearly visible from the start, the line is obviously straight. The ground around the arrival of the drive slopes to the left, the drive will therefore have to straighten out preferably towards the right half of the fairway to remedy this detaiThus playing, you will pass the lake on the left without realizing its existence. A short iron to this unique two-story green, sloping from front to back, requires a flag pitch. A 9Leave the driver in the bag for this uphill tee shot, a true score destroyer! Incredibly, a lake awaits you at 230m. from the tee and a half-hidden bunker blocks your way on the riAiming just at the base of the left mound any stick that will keep you short (but not too short) of the lake will do.Then you will find yourself dealing with one of the most spectacular and severe second shots of the course: through 70 meters. of water and a beautifully sculpted two-story green h10An exciting par 3 to start the back nine, once again making use of the lake: with water from tees and greens and no alternative roads, it presents a gruesome problem for those withOnce across the lake the main features are the two horseshoe-shaped “Is Molas bunkers” which bite into the green, both on the right and on the left. Nonetheless, the green is l11An almost right-angled dogleg to the right with the flag just visible over hill, covered in bushes on the right. It could be an easy birdie, but it could also mean a lot of troubleThe greatest difficulty consists in the tee shot, which could be defined as subtle rather than difficult.Straight down the fairway, the obvious line is the lone tree… and you find yourself with no fairway left; aiming further to the right towards the clump of trees you could find yo12Ten holes since you played a par 5 and your first encounter with the Su Tintioni river; certainly a pit for a consummate tactician. For the cautious, a tee shot in the center and bFor the more daring, a tee shot a little further right, with the possibility of a second measured to the millimeter shot at the narrow entrance to the green. For the daring, cross the river at the closest point and hope to play an iron to the second green.13The “road hole” with the tee shot of fundamental importance: at 220 meters. the fairway narrows to just over 25m. between the “Sahara bunker” and the second lake.A cruel bottleneck and with the "out of bounds" on the road... better to leave the hood on the driver. On the other hand, the green is vast, flat and open and presents no problems.14For some perhaps the most memorable of the short holes. With a bunker in front and almost entirely surrounded by water, the shape of the green resembles that of the African contineA tee shot that passes over Cape Town would be ideal and gives access to the widest part of the green, but any shot aimed west of Nigeria requires watchmaker precision with iron inThis applies to any flag position.15The “wall” hole – another delicate par 5, the longest par 5 of the course where the out of bounds awaits you on the tee beyond the Sardinian dry stone wall.It's a narrow passage between the wall and the mound at the top of the dogleg and an even narrower one for the second shot must blank out the danger of the bunker on the fairway. This done, a normal pitch can lead to a possible birdie. The shortest route, the one over the mountain, with the green within reach, but Tintioni threatens an imprecise second shot16The “beardies” of Is Molas are the feature of this tee shot for the last of the par 5s.Get as close to them as you feel able or go past them and the green is within reach, but the entrance is very steep climb to a double-decker green with a merciless bunker on the leA more subtle obstacle, a tiny mound that shapes the front right of the green makes the approach problematic depending on the position of the flag.17The hole must be played exactly as it appears from the tee, paying attention to the water obstacle that is only visible once reached.The optimal line is the one between the two bunkers, with preference towards the one on the right, trying to reach the hill.At this point, once the drive has been placed, all that remains is an easy wedge for the green.18An excellent final hole, par 4, dividing the men from the boys and equally difficult even if you ignore the “out of bounds” and the bunkers on the fairway.Drive straight to the bunker and you will have the best line to the green... but the second shot is blind.Take the first shot on the much less dangerous right side; you will see the flag, but you will have to play within the short side rather than along the long axis of the green, arri
