Title: Le Golf National?
Post by: mike_malone on July 07, 2013, 09:19:09 AM

 Graeme McDowelll commented the other day that this will be a great Ryder Cup venue. Is this another pro thinking of the pro game or is some interest there? I just watched the intriguing #7 with a blind approach to a narrow green set at an angle to play.

Mayday,
Had the pleasure of playing there in 2005....one hell of a golf course. Haven't read much about it but seems that some revisions have been made to several holes since I was there, at least to my tired old eyes and faulty memory.
They wouldn't let us make tee times until we could prove a USGA hndcp of 15 or less. I think it is run by the French version of USGA or maybe it was a Paris version of GAP.
