Bluffs, Ho Tram Strip
The Bluffs - Ho Tram Strip: this top-rated seaside links course is laid out in a natural duneland area between the sea's edge (a couple of hundred yards away) and a large area of wooded hinterland. Alongside The Bluffs course, sits the Grand Ho Tram Strip hotel and casino resort.
Facing out onto the South China Sea, and almost beachside, Greg Norman's pure links design has won many plaudits. The ever-present rugged sandhills stand in sharp contrast to the green flowing lines of this rolling and rollicking layout.
True to great links golf, water plays very little part in proceedings, apart from the proximity of a vast body of the briny to look at. Thankfully, there's also very little if any real estate to look at. What most certainly makes its presence felt are exposed sand dunes, square-cut tee-boxes, threatening bunkers and a fabulous collection of par-3 holes.

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.
