Abstract/Contents:Profiles the 18th hole at the Australian Golf Club in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. States that "the par 5 18th is one of Australian golf's most intriguing finishing holes, even though it is only 475 metres [meters] in length. It creates a variety of challenges for all golfers." Describes the hole layout, stating that "a straight tee shot is of maximum importance. A large deep bunker on the right side 233 metres [meters] from the tee guards the undulating narrow fairway."
