The National Golf Club (Moonah Course)


The Bob Harrison, Greg Norman design duo created a number of cracking par fives across Australia, none better than Moonah 7 at The National. Golfers hoping for an easy birdie here need to flirt with deep bunkers off the tee and then run their ball along a narrowing valley toward a beautiful green pushed back into a natural dell. Strong crosswinds are what give this hole its teeth, and make your first two shots interesting.

Kingston Heath Golf Club


Made famous by the late Roger Mackay's albatross during the 1987 Victorian Open, the 14th at Kingston Heath has everything a tempting par five needs; a generous driving zone, a spectacularly bunkered back half and an angled green that accepts only the most precise approach and can confound even the longest-standing member. The fact this hole was nominated by our panel ahead of the brilliant 3rd is an indication of its quality.
