Barclays Open ~ Part 2

Filed Under (Snippets) by orionstar81 on 20-11-2008

Continuation….

yupz so we talked about Holes 1 & 2 previously. I must say that the rest of the following 8 holes discussed today will probably give you hints of how difficult the course really is.

Hole 3

This hole looks like a breeze from the way the map shows, but no way its going to be easy! The distance is a major factor and also the trees that covers the course to block out your view. Difficulty will be in the range of medium.

Hole 4

This hole is more than just scenic view around a lake. It takes really brute strength to get that ball over the lake on the first leg. Probably one of the toughest leg I personally feel.

Hole 5

Serapong 5 is pretty easy from the looks of it, but right at the greens you will see that the winds coming in from the sea is making it really difficult, with the wind assisted shots putting players off target.

Hole 6

6th Hole is a real test too. With the wind going wild hitting too hard may bring the shots further off the target marks you intend to place and with the huge bunker to the left of the course for this leg, any wind assisted shots will have to be corrected. Oh boy, the boys on these days all hit into the bunker though.

Hole 7

Next on when the you though that the winds are over and done with affecting your shots, guess again. This leg is one of the craziest but with a tail-wind assisting your shots will fly!

Hole 8

Now comes the inland leg…Serapong 8…a short distance leg for the eagle or birdie or even hole in one try. Wonder if Tiger could put that one away with a single shot?

Hole 9

The relative easy route before hole 10 where you will probably get your eagle or birdie here. To drop points here and get a bogey must be heartache.

So that’s all for the 2nd part of this series. To be continued….

Barclays Open ~ Part 1

Filed Under (Snippets) by orionstar81 on 16-11-2008

Thanks To KEM and LUC for the invite =)

Had loads of fun going for Barclays Open at Sentosa Serapong Golf Course.

Of course the fun part was the golfing action and no doubt the field was really good. Mention the players and wow wee I’m really fortunate to catch the action of some good players and unexpected ones too.

Well… will show some shots further on but lets talk about the golf course. It is super nice and you can see the whole course further on. Also the views of the nice bungalows that are in the midst of construction or already built, are FANTASTIC. Wish we had those kind of $$$ to afford me one!

Ok now on to the 18 hole Serapong Golf Course in Sentosa Singapore!

Hole 1

A pretty mid-difficulty hole for a start with the course on a slop upwards its quite a distance too. If you’ve got a birdie or an eagle here you are lucky!

Hole 2

A fairly easy one to play but its more of because the course got to do a sharp turn to the right for Hole 3 later on due to landscape. This is the place to card your birdie.
