HIS TOP SA COURSES
Oosthuizen’s favourite course in the world is St Andrews, but what about in South Africa? Here we reveal his No 2 and why.
I really like the old-style design of Durban Country Club. The course itself was established long before I was born, 1922, and is situated across the road from the rugby and soccer stadiums. It’s one of the gems in South Africa’s golfing crown and always a pleasure to play. It’s a traditional course which tests every club in the bag. It also gives you options and you have got to be careful to pick the right one. The layout is not long, but requires strategic shot-making and you have to cleverly plot your way around the course. Durban CC is a shot-maker’s course and most golfers don’t use their driver until well into their round due to the narrowness of the opening holes. And yes, I have won there a couple of times!
