Hole 1
One of the best opening holes in The Netherlands. The best line off the tee favours the left side of the fairway to give the best angle to the green. Approaches from the right side are blocked out by a crop of trees, make sure to take enough club. The green is large with two tiers.
Hole 2
The telephone mast is a good line off the tee. Once on the fairway, the shot to the green can be tricky with a water hazard left and a bunker that encroaches into the green on the right. Like the first hole, the second is long and demanding, especially when into the wind.
Hole 3
Avoid the ponds left and right and that should leave a comfortable short iron to the green. Long hitters can try and reach it with their driver and maybe make an eagle.
Hole 4
The 4th is the first par 3 of the day! The green is setup on a plateau with an imposing set of bunkers right of the green and mounds left that will help your ball bounce back onto the green if you miss it slightly left.
Hole 5
A tricky short par 4 with water the whole way down the right side and two large bunkers on the left ready to catch the hooked tee shot. The green is set at 45 degrees to the playing line; anything short will roll back in the water!
Hole 6
The shortest hole on the course but not the easiest! The 6th is played over a pond to a very undulating green which can lead to some interesting putts. Choose your club carefully; balls have been known to spin back into the bunker or even the water.
Hole 7
Keep your tee shot left to avoid the water that protects the length of the hole on the right, two fairway bunkers make the correct line and shape of shot very important. The approach is slightly up hill to an extremely long green which can mean the difference between 3 or 4 clubs. A demanding hole!

Hole 9
The 9th is one of only 4 holes without water and consid ered by many to be the most beautiful hole on the course. A narrow tee shot through the trees that avoids the fairway bunker leaves an uphill approach to the green over a deep bunker.
