Golf is a game of accuracy played with clubs and a ball in which competing players (or golfers) use different clubs to hit their ball into a series of holes on a course in as few strokes (hits) as possible.

It is one of the few ball games that doesn't use a regulation size and shape of playing field. Instead, the game is played on a landscaped course, designed for a range of difficulty and comprising either nine or 18 holes. Every hole on the course must contain a teeing off point to begin from, and a putting green containing the hole. There are different types of ground in between the tee and the hole such as the fairway, hazards (for example sand and water), and rough grass. Every hole on every course is, however, unique in design.

Golf competition takes two forms – stroke play, where the number of strokes each individual takes to complete each hole is totaled across the course; the player who takes the fewest strokes to complete the course is the winner; or match play, where the player who takes the fewest strokes to complete a hole wins that hole and the player who wins most holes wins the match. Stroke play is the more usual form of play because it means that players with different skill levels can compete against each other, using a system of handicap scoring.

Places to play Golf inside El Gouna

El Gouna Golf Club: Gene Bates and Fred Couples designed the course to cater for every level of golfer, from the beginner to the professional golfer playing the competition circuit. The course boasts three men's and women's tees at every hole and strategically placed bunkers, lagoons, and rough. The driving range allows up to 30 players. On the greens, golfers discover the course's pitfalls with shifting wind streams testing their real golfing capacity. The Par five fourth hole heads straight into the prevailing wind and requires no less than two very firm wood strokes to reach the green. Since players must point into the wind, there is a real danger of sending their ball into the desert, making it an exceptionally difficult hole.

The ninth hole plays towards La Rotisserie Restaurant in the Club House tower. It's a relatively simple journey for beginners from the forward tee, but poses a genuine test for those hitting off the championship tees. Having survived the first shot, players are confronted with a second shot into the narrowest stretch of the fairway.

Players who are able to hit  long drives frequently try to hit over the sand trap guarding the front of the green, however even the best may miss the mark. The green itself is a wide target, with players frequently needing to make long putts. A careful reading of the ground will spare you from the feared three-putt.

The back nine have their own surprises. The longest Par four is the fourteenth hole, where about 440 meters separate the championship tee from the flag. For a sensible shot at the green, the golfer must be sufficiently bold to reach a point on the left half of the fairway that finishes 230 meters from the tee.

With all these challenges, it’s really enjoyable to play your favorite sport, in the sun and surrounded by both water and lush greenery.
