The Hero Indian Open doesn’t get underway until Thursday, but it’s already got people talking.
DLF Golf & Country Club, the host venue for this week’s DP World Tour event, has raised eyebrows with its huge revetted bunker faces, dramatic rock landscapes and holes guarded by water. The Gary Player designed course is not for the faint hearted.
Robert MacIntyre, making his first appearance in the Indian Open, told the DP World Tour after his practice round that the last three holes blew his mind.

“I’d heard a lot of stories about how difficult and wild the course was.
“I played the back nine and thought up until the 15th green that this was alright. The last three-and-a-half holes blew my mind a little bit. Hopefully this is the first week of the new season where I’ve got a calm head on.”
Here’s some of the most dramatic pictures from the 7,400 yard New Delhi course.
