The Prince Golf Club

Sounded like a good deal: USD 120 for a round of golf at a highly advertised club including pick up and drop off at the hotel and a USD 20 voucher for lunch included. Yes, a good deal for overpriced island golf..., but the course is nothing spectacular. Very short (only 5300 yards for the ladies on the 18 of the 27 holes I played) and although the layout is nice, after a while, every hole looks a bit like the last one.


So, I played from the men's tees (6214 yards) and on the 18th hole (a 457 yards par 5), with wind from behind, I almost drove the green with my second shot... just 10 yards short. There was a lot of wind, to the degree that my ball moved several times on the green as I was lining up for my putting and against the wind, one really needed solid contact and good roll to get close to the hole. Breaking a hundred today was a good result considering that a lot of putts would not sink or be affected by the wind.
