As you now may be aware the first tee for men has now moved forward making the hole play as a par 4. With changes scheduled to made to the course in coming months this has forced a change of the hole ratings for men.
Members who played on Saturday may have noticed the changes to hole ratings. From this Wednesday’s competition on the 9th of January they will slightly change again. This was due to a slight error in implementing the new indexes last week.
The new changes now reflect the difficulty of each hole for men from the data of 30,000 cards. The ratings for both Blue and White tee markers are reflecting in the table below:
| Hole Number | Rating | Hole Number | Rating |
| 1 | 7 | 10 | 16 |
| 2 | 13 | 11 | 6 |
| 3 | 15 | 12 | 8 |
| 4 | 11 | 13 | 12 |
| 5 | 17 | 14 | 14 |
| 6 | 1 | 15 | 2 |
| 7 | 3 | 16 | 10 |
| 8 | 9 | 17 | 18 |
| 9 | 5 | 18 | 4 |
