British Isles Golf Course

Hole 9 – Royal Birkdale

A par 4 I'm very fond of, I've played about with it, lessening the angle of the dogleg and sloping the green differently. Still I think I've done the 9th hole at the Lancashire links some justice. The drive must be played over the corner of the dogleg avoiding the bunker inside in order to leave the best approach. The green I have raised and is far from easy to find. It is protected front left by a deep bunker and front right by a finger of rough. The slopes and contours on the green make putting tricky.
