Legends Course
The younger sibling to the Open Course, the Legends Course was opened for play in 2003 after the Australian Open and was greeted with rave reviews. The work of Ross Perrett, the Legends Course has consistently ranked highly in all course reviews and whilst slightly easier than the Open Course, is certainly no pushover. The Legends is shorter, being “only” 6,315 metres off the black tees. It is blessed with the better piece of land, has more natural trees and bushes through which the holes wander and certainly bunkers that would not look out of place in the sandbelt itself. Perrett has added to the fun by naming each hole after a famous golfer; most are great Australians, though Arnold Palmer and Jack Nichlaus are in there too as international giants who have triumphed in Australia.
