Seven-point-one and still chasing it.

Incredibly hard, and equally beautiful. I played it when I was around a 15 handicap. I stood on the first tee and looked down a gorgeous but terrifying fairway with fog sitting in the middle of it. I turned around, walked straight into the pro shop and bought a pack of twelve golf balls.

I honestly can’t remember whether I had any left at the end of the round. I loved every bit of it.

I don’t have a clear favourite in Sydney, but I love taking people who aren’t from here to The Coast. The course is decent, the greens and fairways are in good condition and the wind can be brutal, but the views are why I take people.

Hole 4 is a par 3 where you hit over a cove. My favourite is Hole 14 from the Black tees: a 20 metre drop and a 100 metre carry to a fairway with a cliff and the Pacific Ocean on the left, and a very hard second shot on the right. Be brave and you’ll be rewarded. Miss, and you might be in the ocean.

The green hovers over Little Bay, so even if you miss the birdie putt you still get an incredible view.

When I first moved to Sydney I played a few times a week in the afternoons, often just nine holes. It was the first time in my life I played consistently, thanks to good weather and having the time.

The course has since been redesigned and is now called New Greens. I’m yet to play it, but I should do that soon.
