Serapong at Sentosa is very interesting. Some really great holes. Definitely one of the better tracks I have played in Asia along with courses like Blue Canyon (Canyon). Nice call.

Turnberry Ailsa, Royal Lytham & St.Annes, PGA Catalunya Stadium (Girona, Northern Spain), San Lorenzo (Portugal). Woodhall Spa (Old Course)..
Would love to play more of the UK and Ireland's elite courses but $300+ green fees are a joke.

I found Bethpage to be the most difficult tee to green course I've ever played! How did that compare to the courses at Bandon? Always wanted to go, it's on my list for next year!
