Golf at Sun City
The Gary Player Country Club is acknowledged as a difficult and demanding course. A variety of tees make it possible to shorten the course and render playable for all levels of golfers. A distinguishing feature of the course is its green's complexes, with strategically placed bunkers, swales and mounds that protect the super slick clover shaped greens.
Golfers are astounded by the breathtaking beauty of the par-72 Lost City Golf course. The rich green fairways give a dramatic contrast to the bushveld backdrop. Gary Player has acknowledged it as one of his favorite courses with spectacular African views. Gary says that playing the back nine is like going on a golf safari. No effort was spared to make the course a masterpiece. However, golfers are discouraged from retrieving their wayward balls from the croc-infested pools.
