Golf Course Information
The Shore 9 Holes | Par 36 | 3448 Yards
As its name implies, the clockwise loop of nine holes initially follows the Shoreline south towards the Lodge at the entrance to the course. The opening drive is straightforward but a par 4 is still quite difficult to achieve. In contrast the drive at the par 5 second required the longest carry to the fairway of any hole at Prince’s. With its severely undulating fairway the fourth is a daunting hole even for the best golfer. The 5th is the post war 18th playing to the same green where Gene Sarazen won the 1932 Open Championship.
The Dunes 9 Holes | Par 36 | 3432 Yards
The Dunes forms an anticlockwise loop of nine holes five out in a southerly direction to the boundary of Royal St. Georges and four back. The dog-leg 1st hole is arguably the most difficult on the course with a narrow green , tricky to hold even with the shortest of approach shots. The par 3 second offers only temporary respite before three very testing holes particularly the 4th and 5th both challenging par fours.
The Reimagined Himalayas nine by Martin Ebert
9 Holes | Par 36 | 3201 Yards
The members favourite nine has undergone a major upgrade. Renowned architects Mackenzie & Ebert have reimagined the Himalayas course. These changes are most visible on the 2nd hole, which has been combined with 3rd hole to produce a sweeping par 5 around wetlands to the old par 3 green. The 3rd, previously a short par 4, sees the addition of 3 new bunkers down the left-hand side and the ditch on the right-hand side has been enlarged into a wetland. The jewel in the crown is the new par 3 ‘Bloody Point’ located at the far end of the course, this short hole, set against the backdrop of the sea requires an accurate tee shot to the raised green.
