A Classic GCA game II: Overseas courses (Europe) -new pics added-

[Cristian]

Not to copycat or anything, but the top 100 continental europe discussion, prompted me to review some pics on my harddisk.

Can you identify the course? The Hole?

No.1



No.2



No.3



No.4




No.5




No.6



No.7



No.8



No. 9



No.10



Hint: 4 different countries, but 5 from Holland, of which one is not top 100 EU.

[Mark Saltzman]

No. 7 is 17 at El Saler

[Steve Okula]

"Overseas"  how? Are you in the U.S.A? U.K.?

No. 10 is from the old nine at Morfontaine, I forget which hole.

[Mike_Clayton]

8 is 3 at Royal Zoute.
4 looks like the par 5 along the boundary at Hilversum we used to play as 7 (when 8 was the par 3 and 9 drove over 8 green and back to the clubhouse)

[Jonathan Davison]

6 is the 16th at De Pan.

[Cristian]

All correct except Mike on no. 4. That hole is on a different course. However one of the other holes is at Hilversum!

[Cristian]

"Overseas"  how? Are you in the U.S.A? U.K.?

No. 10 is from the old nine at Morfontaine, I forget which hole.

I am not in the UK nor the US, just like these courses, so for most these are overseas. (except you, you are in France, right?)

[Mike_Clayton]

Christian..

Is 10 the 3rd on the short nine at Morfontaine?
3 must be Hilversum - the long four on the front 9 after the par 5 that comes after the short 3!! Number 5 maybe?
2 - the 2nd at Noordwijk?

Correct on Morfontaine. 3=Hilversum. The members play it as the 15th, but on tour there is a different routing. It is the long par 4 immediately following the short par 3 'pancake' hole on the course.

It is Noordwijk no.2!


I am surprised you did not get no. 5 yet!

[Cristian]

Some hints:

No 1 is in France, no.'s 4 and 5 are in the Netherlands, No. 9 is in Belgium!

No. 4 is not on the top 100 eu-continent.

[Mike_Clayton]

Christian.

I got it!!

5 is at The Hague - taken from the 16th tee. 11 is high on the right with 13 to the left.
I've hooked it onto that road before off the 13th tee!

[Paul_Turner]

4 I think is Toxandria

10 Chiberta

9 Looks like Hankley!

[Cristian]

Mike, Paul,


Both of you are correct! 4 is the 14th at Toxandria No. 1 = the 2nd at Chiberta and 5 is Haagsche looking over 13th and 11th fairway from behind the 15th green (near tee 16).

Mike: I saw you play these holes at the dutch senior open; great up and down on 13 from under the little tree left of the fairway.

Paul: 9 Indeed looks like Hankley, but it's in Belgium!

[Cristian]

Correct!

[Alfonso Erhardt]

14 Praia del Rei
15 Saint Germain

[Anders Rytter]

Christian let me add a few pictures to the quiz.

Here's a sample of my 2011 pictures. 3 are from courses in the continental top100 posted a few days back, the last one is a course that was in the list last time.

19. San Roque Old. 14th


20. Finca Cortesin #15


21. Rungsted #4


22.

[Cristian]

no.2 looks like Finca Cortesin 15, an attractive hole.

Is no. 3 Falkenstein?

No 4 looks familiar, Spain or Portugal for sure?

[Anders Rytter]

@ Christian:
Just changed the number to not mess up with your pictures.

2->20: is indeed Finca Cortesin #15, "Cape-like" and a nice way of using the hills of the costa-del-sol instead of all the straight up and down holes i think.

3->21: is not Falkenstein (i'm fairly sure you haven't played the course it's not on your "CV")

4->22 Neither Spain nor Portugal, but same latitude

[Alfonso Erhardt]

11 Fontainebleau
17 Moliets
19 is San Roque Old. Par 3 14th I believe.

If not Portugal, 22 must be somewhere in Turkey with all those pine trees.

[Anders Rytter]

19 correct, not the best picture of that hole but the best i had

22 again correct, it's in Turkey, Pine trees all over the place. Anybody played there who can guess what course/hole?

Will provide some help for 21 later today if nobody gets it

[Ulrich Mayring]

Well, this is a pine tree course that is neither in Spain, Portugal nor Turkey, but the same latitude

In fact, it may well be the original pine tree course, being more than 100 years old. Although I don't know when the pine trees appeared.

This one is Roma Acquasanta...

[Frank Pont]

1 = Chiberta hole 2 or 11
4 = Toxandria 14
5 = R Hague as Mike said (very very good he saw it!)
9 = Houthalen 6?
11 = Fontainebleau 12
12 = Eindhoven 8 (since changed)
17 = Medoc??
18 = Roosendaelsche 16 (not in GW top 100 list)
