WCC’s course is a standard 18-hole configuration with fairways running predominantly in W or E directions.  The Front Nine is the most challenging.  Hole 1, to the left of the Clubhouse, begins with a demanding Par 4, often into the teeth of prevailing SW gales.  Hole 3 is a beautiful Par 3 over water and bunkers to test the daring.  Hole 4 is another challenging Par 4 with fairway and green bunkers.  Hole 6 is the first Par 5 with a dogleg to the right and bunkers around an elevated green.  Hole 9 is a sweeping Par 5 with an unsighted green and is usually broadside the prevailing winds.  Hole 10 is in front of the Clubhouse, is a narrow Par 5 and doglegs northward to a bunkered green.  Hole 12 is a long Par 3 with a heavily bunkered green.  Hole 14 is another pretty Par 3 over water onto a bunkered green.  Hole 15 is a shortish but challenging hole with fairway and green bunkers and a sharp left dogleg.  The home run consists of a Par 5 Hole 16 with an unsighted green, Par 4 Hole 17 and a sharpish left dogleg to a bunkered green and a long, straight Par 4 to the 18th.  The minimap on Score Card will give a general layout of the course.
