The PGA National was the handiwork of Dave Thomas and will be a decade old next year (2007). The Brabazon is the one everyone wants to play because of its Ryder Cup heritage and it is a must-play, but the PGA is a worthy back-up and should not be overlooked. The Belfry offers great levels of servciea and the facilities are top-notch.
