Played a few days ago. I'm in the processs of looking for a new club and this was on the list. Not any more! Pro was quiet and generally a little unhelpful (more interested in chatting to a friend), Some interesting holes and long par 3's but the majority were shortish and/or straight par 4's. Condition was fair but course improvements are limited since I last played here 7-8 years ago. Empty in clubhouse afterwards. Expensive GF - Perhaps everyone in WGC goes cycling these days.

WGC Departee rated 2 out of 5
Reviewed Feb 23 2013
I am a member and agree with the other members comments. WGC GC suffers from it's limited length in the modern game and is a little straight. Grounds staff do a good job managing this with mowing patterns against the direction of play, narrowing fairways and keeping slick greens but I suspect, with ever advancing technology, this will become an increasingly redundant course for younger longer players. You can only dine out on it being Nick Faldo's first course for so long! Membership is heavily weighted to the older generation and as such rounds can be very slow at peak periods. Members / visitors also seem to be unaware of course etiquette with pitch marks and stray balls being a real issue! Unfortunately, the problems are further exacerbated by some poor choices for committee members who seem to be interested in personal gains rather than the improvement of the club. I shall be moving on this year.

Short course but difficult to score well.Course in good condition, Greens have many subtle contours. Quite undulating ground particularly the first and last few holes
Friendly service in the bar under Covid conditions.

Played it in windy dry conditions and rough was punishing, you need to be straight of the tee and not too long as a lot of bunkers will collect over hit balls and slight off line shots,

Not bad. Could do with a little more colour around the course. Very plain. Very hilly. Recommend getting a buggie if you can. Only 6 buggies available, so get in quick.

A good course well kept. Does lack water hazards but is still challenging in many ways with slopes from one side of the fairway to another. Fun to play.

Generally in good condition. BUT greens had recently been hollow-tined which made them very slow, uneven and unpredictable.

Fabulously well kept course. Forgiving & lush fairways & great greens. Maybe not too many interesting or individually styled holes but enjoyable & recommend trying once.

Really enjoyed playing here for the 1st time. Wide open & lush fairways, excellent greens. Not too many distinguishable holes ie a little samey but that’s a minor quibble. Great value & superbly kept. Unfortunately ran out of time to make the bar due to a slow 4 ball not letting our 2 ball through.Reviewer Rating
