South African golf courses - Gary Player Country Club

(These golf courses are some of the many golf courses in South Africa at which you will be entitled to play at affilliated rates when you join THE GOLF CLUB)

Situated in Sun City, the Gary Player Country club is probably South Africa's most well known golf course. This famous course, designed by Gary Player, is host to the annual Nedbank Golf Challenge.
This immaculately kept golf course is a challenge for golfers of all handicaps. Of the back markers the course measures 7000 meters but the variety of tees makes it possible to shorten the course to accommodate all level of players.
The fairways, greens and rough consist of kikuyu grass. The kikuyu in the rough takes on a specially daunting character. The rough swallows your ball and the grass clings to the club head when attempting to play out of the rough. A distinguishing feature on the course is its putting greens. Strategically placed bunkers, swells and mounds protect super slick clover shaped greens. Its signature hole is the par five 9th with its island green.
