17TH HOLE

Ifrinn

This short par-4 is named Ifrinn, which translates as 'hell' so no wonder it is fraught with danger. Aim to drive over the ridge line on the left-half of the fairway. From there you will have the best view of the green. Anything short of the ridge will leave a blind shot over the dunes, a dramatic throwback to the Machrie of old. The green has a subtle ridge through its middle and runs slightly from front-to-back. Only a well-struck approach has any chance of holding the green.
