Greenwood
Greenwood Golf Club: Greenwood (formerly known as Noble Place), occupies a quiet location within the gentle undulations of unspoilt, rural countryside. It has recently benefitted from new ownership and some noticeable and much needed additional investment.
Peter Thomson's excellent 27-hole layout, roams its way over a wide area, where pleasant elevation changes and lightly tree-lined holes alternate with others that feel a tad flatter and more open. Water hazards are less of a feature on the A-nine, but play a bigger role on several holes on the B-nine, starting with the testing short par-4 1st, which doglegs right to left around a pond. A mix of pot bunkers and clover-leaf sand traps around the greens are possibly more forgiving than the clinging bermuda semi-rough, which awaits any stray approach shots not finding either the putting surface, the sand or (on a few occasions) water. Although a few of the greens still need attention to be restored to their best condition, this is a very good layout that will not disappoint.

Who's Who:
Miguel Ángel Jiménez: recorded his 707th European Tour start at the English Open in July, surpassing Sam Torrance’s record for the most appearances on the Tour.
Brooks Koepka: the former world No.1 defends his title at the WGC-FedEx St Jude Invitational at TPC Southwind in Memphis (July 30-Aug 2).
Traigh Golf Course (pronounced "try", and meaning "beach" in Gaelic): You'll find this nine-hole seaside gem on the scenic coast road (as opposed to the more inland and quicker A830) between Arisaig and Morar. Although not on the well-beaten path of Scotland's "trophy" courses, if you are passing through this area, it's a must play.
