St Francis Links has so many different aspects to it, so many varied challenges, so many ways to play it. You have to contend with the wind, scary bunkers, coastal bush, elevation changes, undulating greens and water hazards. You can never get into a comfort zone, as you do with most conventional courses. These attributes all make this layout such a special golfing venue for South Africans at a green fee that’s a fraction of what you would pay for a similar experience anywhere else in the world.
