Meandering through a labyrinth of lagoons the course requires golfers to play with great accuracy and to select clubs carefully Water looms on 13 of the 18 holes and threatens to swallow any shot veering too far to the side On several holes adventurous long hitters will certainly enjoy taking a rewarding gamble by cutting corners while on other holes strategic iron play is a must
