GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 1. 350 meter Par 4
A narrow tree lined fairway greets you on the fırst tee, with mounding sloping into the trees right and left, a safe long iron or fairway woods from the tee, will leave you a short iron shot into raised green gaurded by 2 bunkers at the front right.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 2. 480 meter Par 5
Fairway bunkers stategicly placed in the drive landing zone will make you think twice, before taking the driver from the tee. The second shot requires placing short of the bunkers gaurding the 2 tiered green.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 3. 166 meter Par 3
An impressive par three across a valley to a raised green which is gaurded by a wall of mountain stone in the slopes in front of the green.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 4. 550 meter Par 5Th
longest hole in Turkey , a little frightning from the back tee which is 20 m above this long fairway tree lined right and left all the way from tee to green. 3 accurate wood shots will be required by most players to reach a long undulating green. A real par 5, even the top players in the world will struggle to reach this green in 2 shots.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 5. 345 meter Par 4
After the 4th hole you can relax a little , a large tree in fronf of the green , requires the long hitter to hit an iron from the tee , leaving a sort iron or pitching wedge to hit over the tree to the green. A massive bunker to the left of the fairway makes tee shot placement the priority on this hole.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 6. 154 meter Par 3
You play from a high tee to a plateau green with a narrow entrance gaurded by deep bunkers to the left and grass hollows to the right, club selection is very importatnt here. Anything short will be punished.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 7. 320 meter Par 4
A tricky short par 4. The tee shot is not so difficult , but needs to be kept to the right side of the fairway to give you sight of the green which is long, narrow, and angled to the left , with a large pine tree blocks the entry to the front left of the green. A short par 4 but it requires good course management.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 8. 380 meter Par 4 The widest fairway on the golf course , but the first hole where you negotiate the lakes , a drive to the left centre of the fairway will leave you a realtivly easy mid iron shot to the green. No bunkers on this hole.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 9. 475 meter Par 5 (Water Splash) Water all the way from tee to green on the right of the fairway and trees to the left the approach into the green is gaurded by large pine trees which leave a very narrow second shot landing area between the lake, a real par 5 only the brave will attempt to make this green in 2 shots.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 10. 377 meter Par 4 A tight drive with 2 bunkers gaurding the left side of the undulating fairway the 3 tiered green is angled to the right, with bunkers at the front right. Check the pin position here as it can be very decieving on this long angled green.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 11. 340 meter Par 4 This is a pretty hole to a mounded fairway gaurded right and left by bunkers in the landing area. The green is raised on a high plateau with deep bunkers at the front and left. If the hole is cut on the right side of this green you will have to negotiate the pine tree close to the front right of the green.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 12. 210 meter Par 3 A long par 3 will require many players to hit a driver especially if the wind is coming from the north, the small lake does does not come into play but a narrow entrance into the green with a large bunker front left makes this a difficult long iron or wood shot. You will be happy to walk to the 13 th tee with a 3 on your card.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 13. 440 meter Par 5 A short par 5 but beware a good drive to the left of the fairway will give you sight of the green which dog legs sharply to the right. The approach to the green and the green is surrounded by water left , right and at the back. This is a tough second shot and you will have to make a decision whether to attack of play safe.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 14. 433 meter Par 4
From the back tee the carry over the lake is 200 m. to a narrow tree lined fairway , fairway bunkers 100m. İn front of the green will challange most players , with hidden ground between these bunkers and the green, judgement of the distance to the green requires a lots of attention.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 15. 165 meter Par 3
A high raised tee looks down over a pond. A 2 tiered, undulading green with bunkers short right and left to trap any shot left a little short of the target. A difficult green will require accurate positioning wıth your tee shot to give a good chance of a birdie putt.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 16. 520 meter Par 5
A large tree on the left side of the fairway at 230m. means you need a long drive to the right side to give you the best position for the second shot, but take care the lake comes into play on the left of the fairway all the way to the green , and the right of the green is guarded by 3 well placed bunkers.GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSE HOLE 17. 150 meter Par 3
There is no escape on this short hole , an island green surrounded by a bunker and then only water. Only three options green , bunker, or splash in the lake.
GLORIA NEW GOLF COURSEHOLE 18. 432 meter Par 4 Water all the way the tee to green on the left of the fairway,and trees on the. The toughest par 4 on the new course a really challanging finishing hole. A large tree covers the right side of the green aprroach. If you have a good score going, play this hole with care, think before you attack.
