Open Regional Qualifying Course 2007 - 2011
|
|
|
The new course, the Wandlebury, was designed by Messrs Hawtree & Son and opened for play in 1999. In 2007, the Wandlebury, with its modern layout, was selected by the R&A to be the regional qualifying course for The Open Championship, with its testing 6,735 yards and standard scratch of 73. |
Perhaps less intimidating than the Old Course, at least while the trees are maturing, the Wandlebury presents more opportunities for using your fairway woods, although use of your sand wedge is unlikely to correspondingly diminish.
The body of the course lies alongside the Wandlebury nature reserve looking over open downland to the east.
