Have you seen a course where 1,9,10,18 are all uphill?

I have always felt it was unique that Rolling Green has this feature. Generally if 9 and 18 are uphill to the clubhouse then 1 and 10 are downhill.

I do think this is uncommon.  In our area, Aronimink comes close to the same feature!

Painswick - 1st for sure, the 10th as well, blindly so. The 9th climbs very gradually and I reckon the 18th plays a wee bit uphill.

Off hand the closest I can come are 1,9 and 18,19 being uphill. 10 is steep downhill. Golf du Chateau de la Babette near Brussels.


It's a serious especially 16 must be up there for some serious vertical climb as well, though it's a long par 5 playing steeply uphill. One of the most tiring par 5's I've ever walked, especially given it's placement at the end of the round. 19 is a doozy but oh so worth it...




The way for this to happen would be to have course that doesn't return to the club house. after 9 I suppose or one that is located on the side of a hill with two mirror imagine routing patterns, one clockwise and the other counterclockwise. No doubt it exists.
Sharing the greatest experiences in golf.

Dewsbury is one where 1,9,18 are all up hill though 9 is only slightly and 10 is slightly up hill off the tee then level and slightly down hill at the end.
