With less than 6 weeks to go until the start of the 2019 competition how are your preparations going?
Were you able to make use of the good weather earlier in the year to get out on the course, or can you be found on the course no matter what the conditions are?
It’s not just about the golf though – remember that you will need to prepare yourself to sleep through the loud snores of your fellow competitors as well as a not insignificant amount of alcohol.
Is this the trickiest hole of the weekend? Comment below if you think you could do better, or think there’s a harder challenge than the short par 3 lighthouse hole on the Nefyn Old Course.
The competition will be taking place between Friday 7th June and Sunday 9th June.
The Friday matches this year will be played at North Wales Golf Club in
Llandudno. We have played here before, in 2013, but for those that haven’t been, or need a reminder, here is a video showing what the course has to offer.
Nefyn will be hosting the Saturday action as usual and we expect to be back out on the Old Course this year after missing out last year due to damage to the course.
Sunday singles will be played at Abersoch Golf Club. The mixture of Links and Parkland holes providing a fitting end to what will undoubtedly be another great competition.
Last year was dominated by Rob Austin and his Rest of the World team. What do you think will happen this year? Add your predictions in the comments below.
