🌴 Beauty with a Mean Streak
✅ What to Expect
Sun City might look friendly at first glance, but it’s one of those courses that smiles while quietly plotting your downfall. Ranked among Australia’s top 100 public-access courses, it’s built on sandy soil that gives it beautiful shape and bounce — and just enough roll to send a good shot somewhere you didn’t plan.
Twelve of the first fourteen holes dogleg, so you’ll need to think your way around. Driver isn’t always the answer — smart positioning and course management are. The fairways are firm, the greens are lightning quick, and the bunkers sit exactly where you don’t want them. It’s the kind of layout that rewards patience and punishes ego.
⚠️ Things to Know
You’ll get a bit of a workout walking it — the terrain rolls just enough to make you earn that post-round beer. Some holes have had recent refurbishments, so there’s a touch of contrast between the old and new sections, but nothing that spoils the experience. Accuracy matters more than aggression here — bomb-and-hope players will find themselves deep in the scrub faster than you can say “reload.”
🎯 Why the Mulligan Masters Will Love It
This is golf that makes you think — and laugh. Every dogleg invites a debate, every bad kick sparks a roast, and every par feels earned. It’s challenging enough to bring out your best, but not so punishing that it kills the vibe. You’ll leave with stories, not just a score.
🔍 Final Verdict
Sun City delivers the full experience — strategy, challenge, and just the right amount of pain to make the 19th hole taste incredible. It’s classy, clever, and full of character. Would we play it again? Absolutely — but maybe with an extra sleeve of balls.
