The Inland Empire course is divided by two distinct styles, with the the front nine featuring elevation changes and forced carries and the back nine resembling links-style play where wind can become a huge factor. Great course! Excellent facility and very nice condition, fairway, rough, and green. However I think here is the toughest course in this year so far. Narrow fairway and up &amp; down slope, some holes are layout tricky... plus hard slippery and waved green. Especially No.2, 12 & 15 are very tricky and No.4 & 18 are Par 5 holes and much difficult.
