Drive over the dark green sheds and the letter "o" in the word course. Bigger hitters – how much do you dare to go for? The green has been laid out to test even the most accomplished of golfers, should they attempt to stop the ball on this green with a long iron risking the notorious Road Bunker or the road itself. Hole #18 - 357 yards par 4 Drive straight for the R&A clock and the green can be driven if conditions suit. The valley of sins guards the front of the green, but a wedge in to the green for second shot shouldn't cause the players too many problems. Crossing the Swilcan Bridge is a moment to be remembered forever. ScorecardCourse played: Old Course
