About the game

This year the Royal Golf Association have decided to set some new standards for their annual course design competition. This year their aim is to provide courses with exceptional natural beauty, with character, individuality and personality. Trees, lots of them, some sand, a little water. The land required for such holes will be more expensive but a compliant design will score more highly with the judges. Eighteen new course cards to be spliced into the original deck. Six new special cards with an emphasis on earning the capital necessary to create such a prestigious course. This first expansion for The Front Nine offers a different and more challenging set of demands for the prospective golf course designer.
