Once again, you won't see much difference between the two versions, so it will be up to you to decide if you want to keep both...
Anybody who has had a chance to visit Madeira knows that there is not an inch of flat land anywhere in sight, so, needless to say, you will be walking up and down quite a lot on this beautiful course, designed by the CGX team.
Most of my favorite holes are on the front 9, starting with the left dogleg par-4 1st, with a blind and downhill tee shot over plenty of trees, and a slightly-uphill approach to the green, and the gorgeous par-4 2nd hole, with a blind and steeply-downhill tee shot over a big ravine, filled with trees and another downhill shot to the green.
The left dogleg par-5 3rd hole is very scenic too, with an uphill tee shot landing downward next to plenty of trees way below on the left side, and a downhill approach over the ravine (with more trees) to reach the green, just like the par-3 4th, similar to the approach of the previous hole, with a tee shot over the ravine filled with trees, and a gorgeous view of a mountain lake behind the green, further below.
The next two holes are uphill all the way, with a very narrow tree-lined fairway on the left dogleg par-4 6th, and a very tough second shot to evaluate (distance-wise and club-wise) on the right dogleg par-5 7th hole, with three bunkers in front of the green to watch for.
Then, after the par-3 8th hole, with an elevated green, surrounded by 8 (!) bunkers, you will finish the front 9 with the uphill par-4 9th, with a nice clubhouse behind the green, guarded by three bunkers.
The back 9 is a little bit less scenic but the straight par-5 11th hole, downhill all the way, is pretty with a blind tee shot landing near an elongated lake on the left, midway, and another blind second shot to the green.
The par-4 12th hole, on another hand, is quite short (around 305 yards) but, with a couple of tiny trees in the way (near the elevated green) and a bunker in front, you can forget about reaching it with your driver.
My last favorite hole is the par-5 16h, with a tee shot over a small elongated lake and a steeply-uphill second shot toward the green, slightly to the left (and, again, quite tough to evaluate, club-wise) before heading for a well-deserved rest after finishing with the par-4 18th hole, uphill all the way, with the clubhouse behind the green.
Overall, this well-designed Santo da Serra course is very enjoyable and quite eye-candy with its nice mountain panorama and plantings, thanks again to the CGX team...

I always really look forward to a new course coming out, but even I have say this one was well worth the wait, not only looks great it also plays super smooth online , I loved the way the holes seemed to flow so well. I always play advanced and usually dry/very dry, gusty or breezy, difficult pins, pro tees or tournament tees if they have them for the best challenge. Many thanks to all involved for sharing this beautiful design.

As you can see there is a A and B version of this course, both versions are the same, only the flag position on the green is different.
Important note: a lot of CGX courses are only playable from the: PRO tees
The cgx designers created courses in high tempo, so they only made the pro tees playable.
So in TW08 you have to select the PRO tees.
