Finally got the web site problems fixed.  

Will be unavailable until at least 11:30, so you'll have to fend
for yourselves a little while....

Starting across the pond this week...same drill:  England or Wales only....

Even UK courses are not immune to fairway narrowing.  Look
at those bunkers no longer in fairway lines....

Queen Z-J plays here?

Sperm and narwhal located here?

King Woosie CC?

Mrs. Gordon Gecko country?

Region of Darwin's fave.

I wish I could think of some good clues.  But I would like to hear what people here think of the course and if this course would make for a good Open venue.

Give Prince Porth a ring?  

Six-time host of British Amateur has also hosted the Walker
Cup and the Curtis Cup.  Also has hosted European
professional events.

When riding Whales across the Atlantic, I would chose this as my Port of Call.

[Scott_Burroughs]

This is Royal Porthcawl, in Porthcawl, Wales, designed by
Charles Gibson.  RP hosted the 1964 Curtis Cup and the
1995 Walker Cup (including Tiger).

The layout is here:



from the web site and pics of each hole (go to "The Course"):

http://www.royalporthcawl.com/index.php

including the idyllic setting of the 1st (any better than this?):




other clues include:

"Queen Z-J" and "Mrs. Gordon Gecko" refer to Welshwoman
Catherine Zeta-Jones ("Queen" = "Royal"), wife of Michael
Douglas, who played GG in "Wall Street".

"King Woosie" = "Royal" Welshman, "Ian Woosnam".

"Sperm and narwhal located here?" = both are types of "whales"

"Region of Darwin's fave" = Wales seaside course, Aberdovey.

"Give Prince Porth a ring?" = "Royal Porth Call"

"sounds like a stopover on a vacation cruise" = "port of call"

EDIT:  missed Tommy's during write-up:  

"whales", "port of call"
