Thorpeness Golf Club is revamping some of its most notorious bunkers this winter—starting with hole 17.
Designed by the legendary James Braid, Thorpeness Golf Club is known for its challenging layout and strategically placed bunkers. This winter, the club is giving some of these iconic features a much-needed makeover.
Bunker upgrades at hole 17
The bunker at hole 17 has already received new lining and fresh turf, and it’s looking great. These improvements are part of a broader effort to enhance playability and maintain course quality during the off-season.
Temporary ‘no play zones’
While the renovations are underway, affected bunkers are designated as ‘no play zones’, allowing golfers a free drop. It’s a perfect time to book a tee time and take advantage of the temporary relief.
The club extends its gratitude to the hardworking team making these upgrades possible. And don’t worry—there are still plenty of other bunkers waiting to test your skills!
