A tough par 4 finishes the front nine which is the longest front nine in Europe at 4,032 yards. An accurate tee shot must avoid the steep slopes and bunkers to the right, but there is more trouble on the left with the gorse outcrops. If the tee shot is laid up the long second must carry the gully in  order to reach this massive 4-tiered green, which is more than a quarter of an acre in size. A ‘pot’ bunker called ‘Middlecoff’ in the center allows both a left and right green position and from parts of the green you will not be able to see the hole. It is so difficult that even three putts may be acceptable

Richard Lamb holed a 6 iron second shot for a 2 on the course opening day - May 1st 2002. Club Director Kim Whiting repeated this in 2004.
