Our take
Ten water hazards and an Italian Open pedigree tell you most of what you need to know about Modena, though with barely 30 metres of climb all round it is at least an easy walk.
- Serious golfersLanger's design earns its tournament billing, wide greens that leave long putts, big bunkers and water everywhere you look. The 10th and the 13th are where good rounds go wrong, so know your numbers there.
- Higher handicapsBudget a few balls for the ten water hazards, but the fairways wind smoothly rather than pinch, the tees are wide, and the flat ground means tired legs will not add to the damage.
- SocietiesThe executive course and a well equipped driving range give a group somewhere to warm up or wind down, and 100 hectares of room means nobody feels crowded.
Tell us who’s coming and how you like to play, and we’ll shape the right trip around you.
What you are actually facing
The walk. Flat, and an easy walk — 33 metres of climb over the round.
The wind. The wind is usually north-easterly, averaging 6 km/h. It is the club selection that catches people out, not the yardage.
The water. 10 hazards in play. Bring a few more balls than you think you need.
The design. Bernhard Langer.
The holes that will cost you. The 13th, the 10th and the 18th. The 13th is the one you will be talking about afterwards.
