If this CGX Delhi course has a well-designed and nice suburban panorama, it is not very challenging, with only the front 9, worth mentioning, with a few scenic and dogleg holes. Surprisingly, you will be off to a great visual start with the left dogleg par-5 1st hole, with a tree-lined fairway (and a strategically-placed bunker, midway on the right, to watch for) and some high-rise buildings as a backdrop to gaze at, and the right dogleg par-4 2nd, with trees in the middle dividing two fairways and over which you can hit your downhill tee shot to get closer to the green with the pretty panorama again far away. The next interesting holes are the par-3 5th, with four bunkers around the green (partially hidden by trees on the right side), and the slightly-to-the-right dogleg par-4 6th, slightly-uphill all the way, with its nice panoramic view. As for the par-3 7th hole, you will have to be careful with your slightly-downhill tee shot to avoid the few bunkers spread around the green, before heading for the short right dogleg par-5 8th (around 460 yards), with a wide tree-lined fairway and two elongated bunkers on both sides of the green, where you should be able to putt for an eagle. Unfortunately, the back 9 is not really exciting, with a lot of (mostly) straight holes with wider fairways, except for the left dogleg par-4 15th hole, slightly downhill all the way, and the sharply-to-the-right par-4 16th, along a tree-lined fairway. And just like on the straight par-4 9th hole, you will finish with another straight one, the par-5 18th hole, where you should be able to get another eagle opportunity... Needless to say, despite some nice trees and a scenic panorama, the layout of this CGX Delhi course is not "up to par", compared to so many other great CGX courses, but the designing team is only trying to reflect the reality !
P.S. You might not notice it, but the B course shows up in front of the A one after being downloaded, simply because the name of the course on the scorecard of the A version is mispelled : "Delih" (instead of Delhi).

As ever another well designed layout from the team looks really good and runs very well on advanced with plenty of wind . I was lucky enough to have the B course sometime ago, but of course as it wasn't on this great site then I was unable to leave a comment, many thanks as usual to all involved in bringing both this great versions to us all to enjoy over and over again .

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.
