Victoria Golf Club (9)

The 2014 ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open was played at Victoria GC 13-16 Feb and we had a chance to play the course on the Monday morning after the event.


The course was still as the ladies played on Sunday, grandstands, marquees and final day pin positions and we played from the tournament tee positions.  Victoria GC was a hive of activity as workers commenced dismantling the infrastructure.

Victoria GC has been the host of many major tournaments including Australian Opens.  A shotgun start, we commenced on the par 4 3rd hole.  Over 100 bunkers around the course make accuracy the first goal.


Fourth hole, 130m Par 3

The greens were quick but held the line beautifully and a pleasure to putt on.  Overall course was in fantastic condition as to be expected.


Greens were firm and difficult to stop the ball and the contours mean a few putts or chips back up the swales around the green.



 A great day and experience, it's always a pleasure to play Victoria GC, and I look forward to next opportunity to do it again.
