The best golf course in the world


England's Daily Telegraph has rated Cape Kidnapper's the best golf course in the world.

Having played this course I can understand why. It is set in an amazing cliff-top location with dramatic views of the east coast.

From the moment I arrived at the gate and drove up the sweeping driveway, I knew this was going to be a special day.

The club house was opulent & the pro shop had everything required. The practice range had courtesy balls piled in pyramids for players to warm up. The practice green gave me a taste of the incredible greens.

We were given some tips for putting:
  • Light green is fast.
  • Dark green is slow.
  • The ball tends to roll towards Napier's port.
We were advised to play from the green tees if we wanted to enjoy our round & this turned out to be good advice for all but the top golfers.
The course itself was challenging and rewarding. If you ever get a chance, make sure you play this amazing course.
