Hole n°1 :
HCP 8 - PAR 4
It’s an important tee-shot on this first hole. The hook will take you into the water and the slice into a ditch or onto the other fairway. Double level green.

Hole n°2 :
HCP 6 - PAR 4
It’s important to place the drive on the left side of the fairway for a better approach to the green It is a sloping and well-guarded green.
Hole n°3 :
HCP 2 - PAR 5
The hole is up hill with a slight slope to the right. Therefore from tee to green you have to keep the ball on the left side of the fairway. The approach to the green is difficult because it is very closely guarded by a deep potbunker and other hazards.
Hole n°4 :
HCP 12 - PAR 3
One of the most difficult par3 of the Governor. Selecting the right club is essential, because the green is guarded by a bunker invisible from the tee. A drive to the left will take you out of bonds and a shot to the right will take you directly into the woods down below. The green is very sloping.
Hole n°5 :
HCP 14 - PAR 4
Rather short, so it’s not necessary to start with your driver. But hit on the left for a better approach to the green. The slice can be very penalizing . The approach shot to the green is short but the green is very large.
Hole n°6 :
HCP 18 - PAR 5
Spectacular tee in the woods. The only problem of this par 5 is to be straight from the tee to the hole. Very vast green is closely guarded.
Hole n°7 :
HCP 16 - PAR 3
The absence of bunkers on this par 3 makes it difficult to judge the distance properly, and therefore to select the right club . The hole is on an up-hill, and it is easy to hit through the green.
Hole n°8 :
HCP 10 - PAR 5
Very beautiful panorama from the tee. Although the fairway is very wide for the drive, it’s better to aim at the left part of the fairway. The second shot must be accurate because the fairway is split by two big oaks. Closely-guarded undulating green.
Hole n°9 :
HCP 4 - PAR 4
The main difficulty of this par 4 is its length. Dangerous rough on the right. You’d better stay on the left side with your drive. The second shot is still a long one to the large double level green.
Hole n°10 :
HCP 11 - PAR 3
Long and very closely-guarded par 3. It becomes really difficult when you play against the wind.
Hole n°11 :
HCP 15 - PAR 4
Spectacular and very tight. It is long and narrow. Place the drive on the left of the fairway and definitely avoid slicing your second shot because the fairway is lined with a pond up to the green.
Hole n°12 :
HCP 7 - PAR 4
An ornamental lake to drive over may frighten you but it is not a long carry. A normal shot carries easily. The hole is on a slight up-hill and the green slopes a little.
Hole n°13 :
HCP 1 - PAR 4
Difficult to negociate: the first shot must be long and straight. The second shot to the green will have to carry the ball over an ornamental lake. Green guarded by two large bunkers.
Hole n°14 :
HCP 17 - PAR 3
A genuine jewel of a Par 3. It’s not very long but the green is closely-guarded by three ranges of bunkers. Water on the right and behind. A Par 3 perfectly designed and very beautiful.
Hole n°15 :
HCP 5 - PAR 4
Not easy to evaluate your tee shot because of the two oaks which are located on the fairway within driving distance. In other words play a 3 wood or an iron short of the oaks. The next shot will be longer.
Hole n°16 :
HCP 9 - PAR 4
Nice tee. The faiway is very wide. It is the second shot which is important to the large double level green.
Hole n°17 :
HCP 3 - PAR 4
You have to drive down the right side of the fairway to stay away from the bunker. The entrance to the green is very well-guarded by a large bunker on the left and the second shot could be very challenging if the flagstick is placed on the left side of the green.
Hole n°18 :
HCP 13 - PAR 4
Very tactical. The hook is deadly. It is not the length which makes it difficult but its narrowness. After a well-centered first shot, you will have to play your second shot carefully because there is water on the left. Double level green.
