Ir.
Ciputra the brainchild of well-known Indonesian real estate
developer and business baron, decided to add white sand beach
bunkers to this seaside course to lend to the challenge and
setting. The development design is so innovative that it was

Pacific Coast Builders Conference. Judges called the plan "very
dramatic, very aggressive.
"Dramatic
marshlands, native trees and water will create scenic
vistas and challenging hazards. I want the experience of

HOLE 1 |
|
447m Par 5
APPROACH
This green is very long, up to four clubs. Check
your distance carefully and aim right of the
pin, as it slopes to the left.
SECOND
The two right side bunkers are close to the
green. The fairway bulges out to the right, so
take a line on the right side of the right hand
bunker, and this will leave a pitch down the
axis of the green. For those attempting two on,
beware of the water running down the left side
and along the left border of the green. The
greenside bunker only runs one third the length
of the green, with a grass verge behind it. Be
aggressive and long, and keep to the right
section of the green, so that a miss will still
leave an open chip.
TEE SHOT
Play to the left edge of the right side fairway
bunker. This bunker borders the right side for
about 30 meters and can be reached by most
golfers. Long hitters should not be tempted to
cut the mild left dog leg as there is no real
advantage, and the ball could easily catch the
thicker left rough, leaving no chance for two
on. |
|
|
HOLE 2 |
|
349m Par 4
APPROACH
This is up hill and will require one extra
club. The green is 3 clubs long, so check the
pin posotion. A miss to the right will leave an
easy uphill chip, but a pull left can find the
deep greenside bunker with the green sloping
away from you. If you miss the green, be short,
right, or long - not left.
TEE SHOT
Aim for the middle fairway bunker, which
cannot be reached. Both the left and right side
bunkers can be reached by most players. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 3 |
|
103m Par 3
TEE SHOT
Although this hole is short, the surrounding
fringe slopes down to bunkers on all sides, the
green is heart shaped - wider at the rear, so it
is safer to hit a little past the flag, unless
it is at the very rear. |
|
|
HOLE 4 |
|
282m Par 4
APPROACH
Approaches pulled left can find the water or
bunker bordering the green. The green widens out
to the rear with a grass bank behind, and the
right side bunker extends only two thirds back.
There is only a narrow finger of fairway in
front, so a safe approach is long and to the
right. However with the green also sloping right
to left, this will leave a downhill chip with
bogey the likely outcome. For those who want to
attack for birdie, leave your shot left and
short of the pin to leave an uphill putt.
TEE SHOT
Play to the left of the second right side
fairway bunker. The fairway narrows in at this
point and starts sloping down to the water on
the left. It is best to lay up just short of
this bunker with an iron or fairway wood to
leave a second shot from a flat lie which is
still only about 110 meters from the green. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 5 |
|
287m Par 4
APPROACH
This is up hill and will require one more club.
The green is long and thin with bunkers left and
right. Your shot needs to be straight, and take
into the extra distance required for elevation
and pin position down the green.
TEE SHOT
Play to the left of the third right side fairway
bunkers. |
|
|
HOLE 6 |
|
417m Par 5
APPROACH
An approach from the left side will open up the
pin if it is on the right. If you find your self
hitting from the right side of the fairway, play
a little long to be safe.
SECOND
The fairway narrows in between the front
bunkers, with the front edge of the left bunker
closer to the player. For most it is best to lay
up short of the left side bunker for a short
approach of about 40 metres in to the pin. For
those attempting two on, it is best to hit long
and even a little to the right, as the right
side bunker only extends one third the length of
the green with grass behind it. Bunkers line the
entire length of the left side.
TEE SHOT
Aim to to the right of the left side fairway
bunker. This can only be reached by long
hitters, while the shorter, right side bunkers
can be reach by most. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 7 |
|
125m Par 3
TEE SHOT
Water borders the front right side, and rear of
this hole. There is a small pot bunker behind
the green on the right which is not visible from
the tee. The safe shot is centre left. To the
left of the green is a grass mound which will
deflect balls right to the green. If you pull
too far left you will find yourself in long
grass. |
|
|
HOLE 8 |
|
317m Par 4
LAY UP OPTION
If you are a short hitter, lay up 50 meters in
front of the bunkers, as the fairway narrows in
after this point,. This will leave you an easy
pitch.
APPROACH
Is usually into the wind and uphill. Many people
fall short into the front bunkers. The green
widens to the rear which is free from danger, so
it is best to hit long on your approach.
TEE SHOT
Hit to the right of the left side bunker. The
right side bunkers can be reached. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 9 |
|
335m Par 4
LAY UP OPTION
Take a line on the refreshment kiosk behind the
green if you want to lay up. A chip from here is
to an open green.
APPROACH
This is a long shot in to the green protected
across the front and right border by water. Aim
long and left of the pin, especially as you will
be playing from a slicing lie with the wind
coming in to you from the left. The ground is
open behind the the green and leaves an easy
chip if you miss the target.
TEE SHOT
The right side bunker can be reached, but the
water is out of range for most. The best line up
the left side, where the ball will bounce right
on landing. |
|
|
HOLE 10 |
|
351m Par 4
GREEN
The green cups in to the center from both sides
it is long and slopes gently up to the rear.
LAY UP OPTION
Lay up short of this left side bunker,
especially if the pin is tucked behind the right
side bunker. Keep to the right side of the
fairway if the pin is on the left.
APPROACH
Aim for the left side of the green, as the left
side fairway bunker is about 30 metres short of
the green and poses no threat. There is a narrow
finger of green at the front to the left side of
the greenside bunker. The right side bunker only
extends 30% down the length of the green, so if
the pin is at the back, keep your approach long
for safety.
TEE SHOT
Aim for the right side of the distant left side
bunker which is out of range. The right side
fairway bunkers are within range for most
players. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 11 |
|
346m Par 4
GREEN
Slopes from right to left and gently down to the
rear.
APPROACH
Aim for the left side of the green, as it slopes
down in front and to the right towards the
water. There is a narrow finger of fairway into
the left side of the green for missed shots. The
green is long and slopes to the rear.
TEE SHOT
There is water on the right, so a safe shot is
up the left side of the fairway, where a slight
error will only finish in the short cut left
rough. |
|
|
HOLE 12 |
|
129m Par 3
TEE SHOT
The green is very wide, running diagonally away
from you to the left. It is divided from front
to back by a swale on the right side causing
causing balls to run across the green to the
right and left of it. All the trouble is at the
front left side bunker. If the pin is short and
on at the right side, a safe miss is right to
the finger of fairway short of the green. The
rear bunkers are at least 20 metres behind the
green, so if the pin is middle left, it is best
to be one club longer, as any ball going through
the green leaves an easy chip back. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 13 |
|
416m Par 5
GREEN
The green is long and initially slopes away from
the front, the rises to a plateau at the rear.
APPROACH
Keep to the left side of the pin for safety,
unless the pin is on the extreme left.
SECOND SHOT
Most players should lay up short of the first
left side bunker which is near the green. This
will leave only a 40 metre pitch to the green,
and will open up the green especially if the pin
is on the right side long hitters can easily
reach this green for two, but aim just to the
right of the left side bunker and let the breeze
and slope move your ball to the right. Only
attempt two on if you are sure that you can
carry it all the way, as there is a steep down
slope in front of the green which runs off to
the right and the water.
TEE SHOT
The left side bunker is long and thin and in
range, with the closest part of visible from the
tee, keep to the right of it and on landing the
ball will roll right with the slope. Water is on
the right, but only a danger for wild the shots. |
|
|
HOLE 14 |
|
274m Par 4
GREEN
Very long left to right, with a ridge, running
vertically front to back on the right side. The
green slopes down left and right from this
ridge, but cups up again at the extreme left
lip.
APPROACH
The green is wide and shallow and protected by a
large bunker front and left, leaving only a
narrow finger of fairway into the green on the
right. It is raised all round and requires good
distance control. The green is very shallow on
the left but deeper on the right , so right side
is the safest option.
TEE SHOT
Avoid the cluster of right side fairway bunkers.
It is best to be on the left side of the
fairway, which sits on a lower and level plateau
( the right side slopes down away from the
bunkers). The bushy grass in the left rough is
out of range for most players. Aim for the right
side of the left greenside bunker. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 15 |
|
171m Par 3
LAY UP OPTION
Short hitters should lay up short of he right
side bunker to leave an easy chip down the axis
of the green.
TEE SHOT
Water runs in front and all along the left side
of this green. Anything left is dead. The green
is there clubs long, much deeper than it appears
from the tee. Make sure you have sufficient
club, especially if the pin is at the rear left
|
|
|
HOLE 16 |
|
305m Par 4
APPROACH
This is usually, in to the prevailing wind, and
requires 1 - 2 clubs more that the distance
indicates. The ground falls away left and right
from the green , so safe misses are only to the
front and rar. The green is long and behind it
is open, so if the pin is at the back, be
aggressive especially if the wind is into you.
TEE SHOT
The second fairway bunker cuts into the centre
of the fairway and can be reached by most good
hitters. The safe option is to lay up short to
its left edge, and this still only leaves about
115 metres to the center of the green. Long
hitters can fly the corner of this bunker, but
be aware that the fairway narrows to half its
size past the bunker. |
|
|
|
|
HOLE 17 |
|
492m Par 5
APPROACH
There is water all around the right side, so
shots to the left of the pin are best unless the
pin is on the extreme left side. The green
slopes towards you and is three sticks long,
widening to the rear. The left greenside bunker
only extends one third of the depth of the
green, with a grass hollow behind. It is safer
to be long on your approach shot, and slightly
left.
LAY UP OPTION
IIf you are a slicer, it is safer to lay up
short of the bunker to avoid bouncing right and
running into the water on the right.
SECOND SHOT
Aim to the right edge of the left side fairway
bunker, and your ball will roll right to the
narrow fairway. This will leave an easy third
shot of 125 meters to the center of the green.
TEE SHOT
Keep to the right of the second left side
fairway bunker. This is in range for most
players. |
|
|
HOLE 18 |
|
351m Par 4
APPROACH
Anything to the right will find the water, which
runs along the front and right side of the
green. Short hitters should consider laying up
short of the left side bunker. The left side
bunker only extends one third the length of this
long green, and the green widens at the rear.
Unless the pin is at the front, it is best to
hit long and slightly left, as a miss will find
open ground and an easy chip to the pin'
LAY UP OPTION
Lay up short of this bunker. It will leave a
short chip along the axis of the green, and even
allow a chip and run if the flag is on the right
side near the water.
TEE SHOT
There are two options from the tee. Average
hitters should aim right of the left side
fairway bunkers. The green is still reachable
for the second shot. Longer hitters can attempt
the water carry to the right finger of fairway.
This will leave a more direct approach to the
green. Be aware that the left and right fairways
run parallel for about 30 meters, so any player
who may only just clear the water carry should
consider playing down the left side fairway, as
he will not be penalized with distance. |
