I'm going tomorrow and looking for some suggestions for a few good viewing spots. We tend to follow a group around and then find a few places to stop and watch for a while.
British Masters - Good viewing spots ?

Me and the old man will be heading for the 12th and 13th holes (water hazards on both!) and the stand by the par 3 16th.

Yeah I was looking at 12 & 13 earlier. Looks like a good spot.
Have a word with a marshall when you arrive. I have found them to be very helpful on the occassions that I have visited tournaments. Tell them what you are looking for and they will tell you where to go.

He'll tell you where to go......very politely

Phil - I'll set em up, you knock em in. I did re-read my post and saw I had left an open goal but I thought the sentiment was right so I left it.

Still cold now!
The grandstand at the back of 1 is a great spot to be very close to the players and see the ball fly.

I had thermal top and trousers, and about three other layers and was just right.
Every time the sun came out I was boiling though. Think it got colder and windier in the afternoon, but I just turned up the heater in the car.Good to see Murph, Alex, TXL and the Captain.:thup:

The rain early on was drab. Braved it to follow the Westwood/fitzy/Hatton group all the way round.
I think the back 9 gives a better viewing spectacle. 17 is a stunning hole to watch from behind the players.

Yep, 17 is a great driving hole, or 8, as I call it, given they flip the nines for tournament play.

After walking every hole I propped myself up at the back of the 15th hole which gave great views of the approach into the 15th green and the par 3 16th

Enjoyed the 2nd hole (11th). interesting watching those who were going for it in 2, versus the wedge players.
