Course
The course's difficulty is all dependant on wind. Mastering Doha is all about getting 2nd shot to the right part of green and water is more in play around greens than off the tees eg. Holes 3, 8, 9, 13, 15 and 18. The course is not that long if there is no wind but that rarely is the case at this venue.
