Can Mark Crossfield break par on one of Portugal's toughest golf courses, featuring an incredible 670-yard par 5?
Join Mark, a plus-handicap golfer with ambitions of qualifying for the Legends Tour, as he tackles the stunning Amendoeira Faldo Course in the Algarve, Portugal. With enormous elevation changes, deep bunkers, challenging greens and some seriously long holes, this brutally difficult championship golf course is designed to test every aspect of his game.
Currently playing off a +2.7 handicap according to Arccos Golf, Mark is working towards becoming a +4 handicap golfer. But can he shoot under par on a golf course this demanding?
Throughout this 18-hole golf vlog, Mark puts his ball striking, short game, putting and golf course management to the test, demonstrating the decisions and techniques that can make the difference between shooting low scores and letting a promising round slip away.
Will smart golf course strategy and consistent ball striking be enough to conquer the Faldo Course?
Let us know in the comments how you think Mark's game is progressing towards his Legends Tour ambitions.
