Main Body

This golf course is very hard. In 2018, the grass was too dry and hard. Now, the organizers will add more water to the grass. They will also make the grass slower. The wind will be very strong, so the paths for the ball are now wider.

這個高爾夫球場非常困難。在 2018 年時,草地太乾且太硬。現在主辦單位將增加草地的澆水 amount,並使草地速度變慢。由於風力會很強,因此現在球道設計得更寬。
