I’ve just posted a review of Kooyonga in the review section, having played it on Friday for the 2nd time. I really love the course, but find the last 2 holes quite disappointing. Of all the greens on the course, 17 & 18 are probably the worst. Even so, they don’t diminish my enjoyment of the course that much, I only wish they were better holes.

What other courses have you played where you felt the last hole or two could have been better?

Off the top of my head.

Royal Portrush - the best start I can recall and perhaps the worst finish, given the quality of the rest of the course.

Pacific Harbour - 16 and 17 are terrible, 18 revives it from death.

Barwon Heads - it gets pretty dull after 14/15.

last holes only....
Cypress, NSWGC (with both of those what preceeds them makes them emminently forgiveable, plus they'd probably be great holes on the 2nd best course in [insert city here])
The Lakes
As an opposite, what about The Australian having its best hole last!!

Whats wrong with the 17th, other than its length?

nothing wrong with its length.

perhaps a little too much sand...?

I agree a few of those bunkers could go, but generally I think its a good hole. Scenic almost, with the beach effect along the waters edge.
