ELLA ADAMS' TOP FIVE HOLES Hole 1 Par 5, 452m The tee shot is open but lined with trees on the left and wasteland down the right. It's not an overly hard hole but it holds its own challenges. Depending on pin location, the approach angle could be vital in order to hit it close and have a good chance of birdie.
Hole 3 Par 4, 353m A slight dog-leg to the right with a huge bunker on the right side of the fairway. The tee shot is up a slight hill and a long enough drive will clear the bunker, allowing the ball to release over the hill. That attacking line also gives a better angle into most pins on this green.
Hole 8 Par 3, 138m A very pretty hole, hitting over wasteland onto a wide green. It is not a long hole but the bunker at the front seems daunting, yet it is not as tough as the bunker over the back of the green.
Hole 15 Par 4, 374m A straight hole with bunkers left and right, with the natural slope taking the ball towards the right bunker. A shot from the right side of the fairway is usually a better angle in to avoid the big hill off the front left greenside bunker.
Hole 17 Par 4, 373m A beautiful but tough hole with pines lining the fairway. A straight tee shot or slightly down the right half will open up the shot into the green. There is a very deep greenside bunker, which adds to the challenges of this hole.
