When going through the course hole by hole, it is easy to see how fairway widths have changed over time. The 2nd hole is a good example of this. The hole used to be play along the<br />

railway, however the fairway and green positions have remained the same since 1942.<br />

The width at the start of the fairway has remained relatively unchanged, but the fairway after the drive bunkers is now significantly narrower. The fairway used to remain quite wide<br />
