Braeben Golf Course, Mississauga,On Canada May 17th, 2013

Course Overview

This course is built on a landfill site and provides great views of the Mississauga skyline. Because of the elevation, it is always windy and plays like a links course.
I played this course on Friday May 17th and shot a 91. It was a great round considering I hit 12/13 fairways and drove the ball very well. I played with Ko, Elvin and Alex and really enjoyed my round. It was quite windy and chilly for the front nine, however warmed up for the back nine. Again, I struggled on the back nine with my short game and putting. Missed several short putts.
