Hole 6

The sixth hole is perhaps the most difficult challenge on the front nine of The Sands Torquay, and it looks even tougher than it plays.

​

The bunker placement in the landing area presents an intimidating picture, but there is in reality plenty of fairway to receive the tee shot off to the right. The line of the second shot must be carefully considered, however, as the bunker on the right side is well short of the green and offers a difficult recovery. For many golfers a little humility in selecting a safe bogey route may be the best strategy.
