Leopard Creek appears to have some of the widest fairways of our leading courses, yet strategy off the tee is one of the key features of an intricately varied design. The only way to experience that is to play from the tee markers (there are five options here) relevant to the distance you drive the ball. That brings more of the hazards into play, and you have to make decisions based on taking them on or laying up. Going to a forward tee at Leopard Creek will quickly bring into perspective the myriad challenges this course poses for elite golfers who have no issue with distance.
