In 1926 Dr. Alister Mackenzie visited Royal
Adelaide to advise on its design and his initial reaction to the links was: "One finds a most delightful
combination of sand dunes and fir trees, a most unusual combination even at the best seaside courses.
No seaside courses that I have seen possess such magnificent sand craters as those at Royal Adelaide."
A combination of testing short holes with ball catching bunkering along with a number of testing longer
holes ensures that all shots must be carefully thought out to register a good score for the 18 holes.
From the back markers it now measures 6,603 metres and the open spaces have been gently
contoured and bunkered to provide an intellectual and physical challenge to all players whether from
the more friendly members' tees or the more demanding championship markers.
