Manmade hazards are few on Australian architect Bob Harrison’s design, but he puts golfers on notice early, with the tee shot at the 205-yard 2nd needing to carry a 100-foot cliff. The thrill ride continues, with holes 8 through 11 hugging the cliff line. Harrison mixes up the asks with a variety of fine green complexes. Most are open in front to accommodate for the wind, some greens fall away from the player, a couple are knobs that are particularly hard to hold and the tiny putting surface at the 9th protects par at the drivable 295-yard par-4.
