Westlake Golf Club

South Africa

The 18-hole parkland style course was designed by the members at Westlake Golf Club. With consultation and advice from many professionals, many noticeable improvements have been made over the years.

The greens are all Poa Annua which is a rather delicate grass that requires lots of care and maintenance but if managed correctly, delivers an amazing putting surface. Fairways, semi-rough, tee boxes and rough are mainly Kikuyu, as is the standard in South Africa.

The golf course is managed on a daily basis with the greens and the bunkers being maintained every day. The fairways and rough are mowed weekly and although the rough can be tough at times.
