The Sharjah Golf and Shooting Club only has a nine-hole course and the tournament was the first European Tour, European Challenge Tour or European Senior Tour event to be played on a nine-hole course. In 2017, the par-3 and par-5 holes (holes 3, 4, 6 and 8) were played from different tees when played the second time.[1] In 2018, all holes, except the first, used two different tees. In addition two pin positions were used on each green on the final day.[2]

gollark: Shipping container homes seem cool, although there may be horrible practical issues I'm not seeing.
gollark: The encoding is slightly horrible due to what seems like casefolding by resolvers and/or discord.
gollark: Discord appears to resolve any links you send, which is to be expected given embeds I suppose, so you can have lots of fun with this.
gollark: I made a DNS query to IRC bridge which sends to a channel which is also bridged to Discord.
gollark: I have made "progress" with my "thing", and it only took... I think several months? I'm very easily distracted and prone to rewriting things when I get annoyed with a language.
