Top hint for this course
Have a tip for the 2nd. If you're a long hitter, this 251-yard par-4 will satisfy you. Although an out-of-bounds plagues the left side of the fairway, aiming towards here provides a chance for an eagle. Be warned-the green is tricky.

Full Course Lowdown
One of Blackpool's finest, and it's not a course you should underestimate.
This track has it all: bunkers, plenty of water hazards, undulated terrain, and complicated greens, so you're guaranteed a testing round.
Keep composed and favour accuracy for a stunning round to impress the squad.
Course
The opener isn't easy. Off the elevated tee, you can see bunkers towards the end of the fairways. Take the safe approach and lay up before them to approach the green.
On the first par-3 of the course, the 4th, the green is elevated, so play a club longer because of the distance.
The 15th is a true test. Mounds down the left, out-of-bounds to the right, and a sloping fairway cause a headache. Oh, and we forgot the water troubling the second shot with another out-of-bounds and bunkers. A nightmare hole. A par here would earn some swing oil.
At the closing hole, an out-of-bounds, water hazard and bunkers mean navigating your way around is key. However, it's a generous fairway, so it's reachable in two to close the round.
Clubhouse
Head over to the Pub & Grill. A cosy, classic pub setting with a wide range of draught larger and ales to enjoy after an intense round. On top of this, the menu provides hearty meals from juicy steaks to large burgers-the perfect refuel.
Kick back and relax while watching the live sports on the massive TV screens and discuss the action from the round with the gang.
