OVERVIEW
Himmerland’s Golf Resort , the host for this weeks Made in Denmark was designed by Philip Spogard who also designed Carya Golf Club (host site for the Turkish Airlines Open, so look at the results from that event as a comparison). The course is susceptible to the strong winds as it was designed to let mother nature be the defense against the players. They lengthened the course by about 200 yards from last year, but the par 5’s still aren’t too absurd. One of the three is 644 yards (the shortest one is 471 yards which is the same distance as one of the Par 4’s they’ll be playing as well) so Par 5 scoring should be a lock as well as driving distance. Scoring will mostly take place on the short Par 4’s as the course plays host to five holes that play under 400 yards. Bombs away.
