Royal Durban Golf Course, 16 Mitchell Crescent, Durban, KwaZulu Natal / Flat but interesting championship course within the confines of the Greyville horse racing track, and close to the city centre. Several holes border on the racetrack on the opening nine, so don't come to Royal with a slice.
The Course
This course is one of the most demanding golf courses in the country. At first glance it looks easy with its flat layout and lack of trees, but there is little protection from wind and that can mean a difficult game.
Signature Hole
There's a good balance of holes, short and long, and one of the most exciting par 4s is the ninth, just 279 metres from the back, with a green placed between a large tree and perilously close to the rails of the racetrack.
