CRUDEN BAY FOLLOWS US EXAMPLE BY PLAYING IT SHORTER

NEWS RELEASE
Cruden Bay Golf Club has followed the example set by the USGA ‘Tee it Forward’ initiative and introduced a new set of shorter ‘Green Tees’ as an option for all golfers.
‘The new green course measures 5299 yards’ says PGA Director of Golf Robbie Stewart, ‘compared with the normal white tees at 6287 yards and the red tees at 5722 yards’. ‘We introduced these tees simply as an extra option for golfers of all categories, however the feedback we have already received from our lady golfers, senior golfers and our up and coming junior golfers has been fantastic’.
Ladies in particular are set to benefit from the new set up as some of the carries from the normal Red tee position to the fairway are just too long for some players, making the course unplayable.
Robbie adds ‘we do hope that golfers of all standards will use these shorter tees simply to introduce a bit more fun and variety to their games, which of course leads to more enjoyment and lower scores. In addition our Ladies Open Stableford in May will be played from both the normal Red ladies tees and the new Green tees giving more lady golfers the opportunity to enjoy playing our championship course. Families too will benefit from the addition of these tees as they can play golf together with each family member choosing which set of tees to play from’.
Cruden Bay is a warm and welcoming golf club that caters for both members and visiting golfers from across the globe. The golf course creates unique challenges for all categories of golfer and offers the one thing that all golfers enjoy – FUN. Currently ranked #61 best course in the world by Links Magazine Cruden Bay Golf Club is a thriving golf club experiencing a very welcome and deserved increase in popularity.
