    Just googled it and it says it's at the national which is a 15 minute drive from my hotel. I'm off to vilamoura next month with mates for 2 days of golf but have put the feelers out to them to come back to belek in 2027.

    I've not played there. I'll be interested to know how linksy it is, if at all.

    How did your Carnoustie trip go?

    What did you make of it? Fairly open. Good course for all year though drainage is excellent

    Ive been playing golf for about 2 years now and absolutely loving it!

    Been playing some great Courses here in Melbourne on the sandbelt and Up in Qld where a mate of mine lives. 

    Hit my best score of 91 at Sandy Links which was the old home course of Geoff Olgilvy, winner of the 2006 US Open. 

    Im playing 18 holes once a month since my  Baby was born, playing again on Sunday. 

    Here's a vid to get a feel for it - I must say, it's fantastic.

  • I have been playing golf for 50+ years and am totally shite at it but still keep going back for more.
    Why?
    The divot goes further than the ball......
    Played last week and I reckon I was no better than when I first started.
    Can't blame getting old - I've always been shite.
    But I think it was Ronnie Corbett who said "as I get older, I get fatter, so when I put the ball where I can see it - I can't hit it, and when I put the ball where I can hit it - I can't see it"!
    Ah-well. I will keep trying........
