Hole No. 1		422 yards	par 4
The opening hole offers the golfer a first look at both the beauty and the classic design strategy that is in store for them at El Legado de Chi Chi Rodriguez Golf Resort. The entire hole unfolds before you as you step on to the formalized rectangular tees and are able to see all the way to the green. The character of the large fairway bunker on the left sets the tone for all the bunkers on the course. Play towards this bunker on the tee shot and youíll set yourself up for the best angle of attack on the approach shot.
Hole No. 2		457 yards	par 4
This hole has the feel of a slight dogleg to the left because of the two fairway bunkers on the inside left, which are very much in play off the tee. Aim down the right side and allow the constant crosswind to push the ball back toward the middle of the fairway. A large wide green is set in perpendicular to the flight-line, with a small bunker set in the front center and fairway running around both sides of it to create a double approach. This gives the option to run the ball up to either side of the putting surface depending on where the pin is located.
Hole No. 3		402 yards	par 4
This is the first hole where the prevailing wind hits you head on. A solid tee shot is paramount in order to keep a good start to the round in tact. The right side of the green is the safe place to bail-out and will afford a fair chance to get it up and down for par if youíre struggling to negotiate the hole.
Hole No. 4		400 yards	par 4
A true dogleg right, the tee shot is played to a wide landing area framed by a large bunker on the inside and two bunkers on the outside of the fairway. A power fade off the tee will put you in the perfect position to hit an approach shot to a green located on the opposite side of the water channel that runs across the northern end of the site.
Hole No. 5		214 yards	par 3
The 5th hole is a very picturesque par 3 with a green set on an existing pond. Club selection is very important, as you donít want to come up short on the tee shot. The putting surface is relatively subtle with a good slope on the back left to help hold a ball and feed it back to a pin cut on the right.
Hole No. 6		395 yards	par 4
A good ìrisk / rewardî par 4, the 6th hole plays downwind and is guarded by a pond along the left that could grab your tee shot or approach. If you choose to go the conservative route it will require good distance control to lay up short of the pond. To attack this hole and take advantage of the wind, you must carry over the fairway bunker on the right. Be careful though, any miscue could end up meeting a watery grave in the pond on the left or the channel down the right.
Hole No. 7		546 yards	par 5
The first of four great par 5ís youíll encounter at El Legado. The prevailing wind will make this hole a true three shotter. Challenge the fairway bunkers up the left side on the 1st and 2nd shots to give yourself the more open alley to hit the green in regulation.
Hole No. 8		225 yards	par 3
No. 8 will prove to be one of the most unforgettable par 3ís youíll ever try to conquer. The hole is situated on a pond that stretches along its entire length from tee to green. There is a good amount of room to bail-out on the right, but the proper shot would be a draw from right to left into this wide green that is separated in the middle by a small mound in the putting surface.
Hole No. 9		601 yards	par 5
Tee it up and let it fly on this downwind par 5. Despite the pond and stream channel all the way along the right side, this hole has generous landing areas and could be reached in two with a couple of mighty blows. Take heed of the long narrow green because a back pin could play one club longer than you may think.
Hole No. 10		410 yards	par 4
There are three fairway bunkers triangulating the landing area on this opening hole to the back nine. The ideal tee shot would be straight away towards the farthest target bunker, however, you must take note of the terrace running through the middle of the green and know which level the pin is on to get it close for birdie.
Hole No. 11		195 yards	par 3
With many of the back nine holes running north or south, the wind will become a major factor beginning with this one. The wind can help you or hurt you depending on the circumstances, and those who can hit it high or low on command will have the opportunity to make up a lot of ground on their opponent. The 11th calls for a low boring shot into the wind to a large and wide green.
Hole No. 12		435 yards	par 4
Potentially the most difficult hole on the course due to the wind, this par 4 may play like a par 5 for some. The green complex is a large target completely void of any bunkers with fairway bail-out areas on both the left and right sides. There is plenty of room to work in even the longest second shot.
Hole No. 14		575 yards	par 5
Youíre not out of the wind yet, but youíll have three shots to reach the green in regulation on this 575 yards par 5. Keep it in the fairway off the tee and play towards the cross bunker on the right side of the 2nd landing area. Whether you lay up short of the bunker or fly it, this feature is a good target to set up the best 3rd shot into a green guarded by a large bunker on the front left.
Hole No. 15		455 yards	par 4
This long dogleg right favors a tee shot down the left side of the fairway that avoids the series of three bunkers on the right. The target bunker to the left of the landing area is a good feature to aim at being more than 300 yards off the back tee. The green is well bunkered, but you can take advantage of the wide approach that opens up from the left.
Hole No. 16		242 yards	par 3
Hole No. 15 is the longest par 3 on the course and possibly one of the longest you may ever play. The green has plenty of depth to accept a tee ball hit with a long iron or fairway wood and has an extended collar all along the right edge that slopes back towards the putting surface. Donít be fooled by the bunker on the front left, it only appears to be close to the green.
Hole No. 17		420 yards	par 4
Finally you can begin the down wind run back to the clubhouse. With the wind at your back the better player may even choose to tee off with a fairway wood or long iron to leave the most desirable yardage in for the second shot. The green is located on the opposite side of the stream channel and will require complete accuracy to get it close.
Hole No. 18		408 yards	par 4
The 17th hole will demand your attention from tee to green. This dogleg right with the stream channel running all the way along the right side will play like a classic cape allowing you to bite off as much as you dare on the tee shot. The green complex is set up with a bail-out area in the back left, and a bail-out area on the front right that slopes down to the stream channel.
Hole No. 19		582 yards	par 5
Undoubtedly one of the most memorable golf holes on the island or anywhere else, the 18th at El Legado has everything you could want in a par 5. Playing across the stream channel with several waterfalls to allow for the transition of nearly 20 feet in elevation change up to the island green, you canít help but be blown away by the beauty and excitement of this hole. The 1st landing area is wide, but well bunkered to test even the longest hitters if they try to cut any of the dogleg. With the wind helping on the tee shot, it is still possible that some will take the chance on the second shot to reach the island green which is surrounded by waterfalls.
