HOLE 16: PAR-4, 408 METRES – GANTON GOLF CLUB, ENGLAND
Gary Player once said that Ganton, in the county of Yorkshire and in the world’s top 100, is the only inland course worthy of holding the Open Championship. Impenetrable gorse lining the fairways of this testing heathland track provide a strong defence, in addition to the 111 bunkers positioned aggressively around the 18 holes. Ganton’s strong finish picks up steam on the 16th hole with a daunting tee shot played over a massive cross bunker running across the fairway about 137 metres out, then continues through an avenue of trees to a large green guarded by more sand traps. +44 1944 710 329; www.gantongolfclub.com
