Scott:
That bunker in the center is hard to reach now except for the longest hitters, but it's still a factor if you're trying to have a go at the green downwind with your second shot.
I've been at Askernish three days and now The Renaissance Club the last three ... a study in contrasts!
Result of the event: Simon Holt and Ben Wescoe won the final match, 3 & 2 over my client Andre Mourgue d'Algue and his wife Philippine. Michael Wharton-Palmer and his partner reached the semifinal, as did Niall Carlton and his partner, who eliminated me in the third round yesterday evening. There were a few other GCA folks around, perhaps they will comment on the course over the coming days. It appeared to be set up for the Open championship ... quite a bit narrower than it used to be.
Also, a few folks had a sneak peek at the new Confidential Guide last evening, there might be some talk about that as well.
