The Longcross is a championship par-72 sandbelt-style course, designed by the acclaimed architect Fred W. Hawtree, stretching to 6,750 yards from the championship tees.
Cut seamlessly through a dense canopy of mature Scots pine, beech, and silver birch, this traditional heathland-style routing demands elite ball-striking and disciplined course management over raw power.
The encroaching, tree-lined fairways place severe visual pressure on the tee box, meaning players must focus on precise positioning to avoid penal recovery shots from the woodland.
