The Course

By today's standards Liphook is not a long course having both an SSS and Par of 70, measuring 6295 yards from the Championship tees. The course has five par 4 holes of over 400 yards and three par 5s. Its tight fairways, lined with an abundance of heather, gorse and trees, put a premium on accuracy but its biggest defence are its greens, true and fast with subtle breaks and borrows. They are among the best in southern England.
