There are four 9-Hole Short Courses to play and the layout is very challenging and will test everyone’s game. Course knowledge is important. “I heard a story that Phil Mickelson designed the Grand’s chipping green to be where when you hit a great shot it turns out perfect but if you hit a slightly off shot that the ball would roll way away from the hole. We tried to create this similar lay out and it turned out awesome” – says Chris
