Course Details

The Mines played host to the World Cup of Golf in 1999 and the inaugural womens World Cup. The course is billed as one of the "7 wonders" of the Mines Resort City. 2 white tigers are present in an enclosure in the clubhouse.

Course Layout

Play from tee to green will be at a premium due to the size and undulation of the greens. Water comes into play on eight hole at the Robert Trent Jones layout which was created in 1993 on the site of an old open cast tin mine.

Fairways

Bermuda cut at 3.5mm. Narrow and may need preferred lies due to heavy recent rain

Greens

Tiff dwarf cut at 3.5mm. Running at 9.5 on the stimp.

Rough
