I've played it twice. The front 9 isn't too hard but the last 5 or 6 holes are extremely difficult for the pros especially if it's windy.
16. A par 3 that can be 250 yards if the pin is up the back to a narrow green that the ball easily runs off.
17. Crazy hole with water crossing it back and forth. Green is hidden pretty much behind a hill too. This will be a very long second shot into the wind or if they hit their ball left or right to avoid water.
18. Similar to 17 with the addition of an OOB close to the left side of the green.
You can download the open film on sky sports catch up if you have it.
Undoubtedly a brutal test of every aspect of the game
What did those who've played it think of it - always looks a bit of an ugly duckling compared to many of the other Open rota courses
For example I'm desperate to play St.A, Birkdale, Turnberry but never really had the urge to either spectate or play at Carnoustie
