Auburn Links at Mill Creek: GOLF CLUB PERMANENTLY CLOSED IN 2018, pending residential development.

[Original Where2Golf description]: Auburn Links at Mill Creek: This very enjoyable public golf course just to the south-west of Auburn is laid out in predominantly natural, undulating woodland. Running through the property from north to south is the main water hazard on the course, the good-sized Mill Creek, which quickly introduces itself, cutting across the undulating fairway of the par-4 1st hole - not once but twice.

The creek reappears at other points in the round, running alongside one or two fairways, or providing a hazard to be crossed on the par-4 10th and 18th fairways, and at the par-3 13th.

Much of the course is played through a picturesque and gently undulating environment, with mature trees lining most of the fairways. Real estate only gets into the act in the middle of the back-nine, where the par-4 14th and dog-legging par-5 15th sweep their way around the Mill Creek housing subdivision.

There's plenty of good bunkering and occasionally some tightish drives to make on this excellent value and well maintained public course.

Tournaments

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.

Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.

Recently visited

Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.

The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
