Golf del Sur

Golf del Sur is steeped in history. It's one of Tenerife's most famous courses, at the top of visitors' bucket lists and a regular host of tournaments.

Pack your bags, hop on the plane to sunny Tenerife, and tackle this challenging 9-hole combination with the gang. Can you dodge the infamous volcanic ash bunkers?

Course

The opener is a par-4, with the tee box in front of the clubhouse, so don't choke. Hit the centre of the fairway for a strong start and be careful on the approach to the well-guarded, tiny green.

Harsh.

On the 4th, things don't ease up. A layup shot is needed before the drink if you want to play cautiously, but big hitters will carry the water from a distance.

At the 8th, a bunker guards the front of the green, so don't be deceived by the clear fairway at the start.

Prepare for a zigzag approach on the 12th (you'll need patience). Play from right to left, and then favour the right of the green to score less than the crew. Light work, right?

To finish, cover yardage with your driver and don't slice it, or you'll hit the bunkers. Not ideal. If you avoid the bunkers, hit the right of the green to avoid any trouble on the left.

Clubhouse

Forget uncomfortable seats, quick meals, and a tight space, and enter table clothes, fine dining, and an outdoor terrace. It's easy to forget you're in a 19th hole here.

Don't worry, there are casual seats for a laid-back experience.
