This resort proudly boasts the world's largest driving range known as "Dream Golf Range" in the Guiness Book of World Records!

You can go to the official tournament site and click on the "course" heading and then "course strategy", to see each and every hole. It's really one of the best tournament sites I've ever reviewed! This Ocean course plays 7,275 yds and was designed by Jack Nicklaus.

Television coverage will be on the GC, Oct. 29th-31st from 12:00 - 2:00 PM ET.
Juli Inkster is listed in the final field for this weeks tourney; I will be rooting for her to get the WIN after her great play in Malaysia at Sime Darby, when it came down to the final hole and her pitch out of the sand took her too many feet from the pin for a par, to get her into a playoff spot with Jimin Kang.
Now, Go Hit Some Balls...............
