Golf Courses in South Africa - Gary Player
Country Club
 Situated
in Sun City, the Gary Player Country club is probably South Africa's most
well known golf course. This famous course, designed by Gary Player, is
host to the annual Nedbank Golf Challenge.
This immaculately kept golf course is a challenge for golfers of all handicaps.
Of the back markers the course measures 7000 meters but the variety of
tees makes it possible to shorten the course to accommodate all level
of players.
 The
fairways, greens and rough consist of kikuyu grass. The kikuyu in the
rough takes on a specially daunting character. The rough swallows your
ball and the grass clings to the club head when attempting to play out
of the rough. A distinguishing feature on the course is its putting greens.
Strategically placed bunkers, swells and mounds protect super slick clover
shaped greens. Its signature hole is the par five 9th with its island
green.
