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
