\"Par<\/a>

Par 3, 9th hole<\/p><\/div>\n

Here we are then, Day Five and the final round of my Atlantic Links tour sees me pitch up at its highest-ranking course on Golf Monthly\u2019s Top 100 list. It\u2019s another Harry Colt Classic in Burnham and Berrow, which sits comfortably in the Top 50 at no37. I have to say standing on the first tee looking out to the dunes, I know I am in for another great day\u2019s golf.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know, maybe it\u2019s the proximity of the first tee to the clubhouse, but I feel slightly nervous and get under my 3-wood and sky it into the dunes on the left. I wedge out to the fairway, stiff the wedge and scramble my par. But what strikes me as I walk off to the second tee are the colours that greet me. Like the rest of this week the sky is the brightest of blues and the fairways are that perfect golden-brown, but the fescue that lines the fairways has a slightly orange-red hue. It\u2019s truly breathtaking and it\u2019s at this moment I realise that Burnham & Berrow is going to be a fitting finale to this tour.<\/p>\n

If Mr Colt was happy with his work at Trevose GC, he must have been in heaven with his handy work to Herbert Fowler\u2019s original course was completed. You will also be happy to know, Dr Alistair Mackenzie had a hand in the ninth and tenth holes and with those three luminaries of golf course design, it\u2019s not hard to see why this course is held in such high esteem.<\/p>\n
