This Richmond Hill course, which opened in 1993, appears daunting with its humps, bumps and forced carries. But it is surprisingly playable for less skilled golfers, while better players have a great time attacking it and meeting the challenges doled out by designer Rene Muylaert.
The front nine is defined by hill and dale and lots of water, while the mature-looking back nine dips into valley lands carved out of thick trees. The island green on No. 8 is one of many highlights. The dramatic bunkering and varied green sites are key parts of DiamondBack’s diabolical charms.
