Deep, demanding bunkers and rugged natural rough make every shot a true examination, just as it has for countless elite events held here.

The tree-lined corridors, bold contours and stunning green complexes combine to deliver a round that is as inspiring as it is challenging and ranks within the top 10 courses in England by top 100 courses.
