Hole 17
Distance 437m
Par 4
Stroke 12
The dry route is guarded by sand so the tee shot must split a fairway rolling right to left towards water. Accuracy is the key as any perfect tee shot leaves a short iron into the green.
From the back tee, it is a carry of more than 200 meters just to reach the fairway. The real risk, however, is with the approach shot even with a good drive from the back tee, the players are left with a medium-iron shot to a green positioned in the famous Sun City lake, with a deep bunker to the right protecting against a bail-out. Don’t be embarrassed to play 17 for a bogey. The whole idea is to avoid a double bogey, don’t be greedy.Gary Player
