As always, I have here full text guides for all holes that you can use to practice.

Chateau Lavande Hole #1 (Par 4)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | 4-5 Top, 4-5 Left | |
⛳️ Overadjust | ||
Ball | Katana (Rookie), Katana, Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Thorn, Hornet, Apocalypse (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
If you really want to play this one here aggressively you can go for the bushes in between the center. I’d rather recommend you to use a driver that offers at least 225 yards of power. Combine it with all left spin and aim to the left of the fairway.
This way, you will secure a good spot for your second hit.

Chateau Lavande Hole #2 (Par 3)
Drive | 2nd shot | |

↩️ Spin | 2 Back | 3-4 Back |
⛳️ Overadjust | 15% | |
Ball | Quasar (Rookie), Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Backbone, Goliath (Rookie) | Sniper (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
[adinserter block=”3″]
You will need to look for the sticky spot toplay this shot. Apply the right amount of spin and play with a long iron with approx. 2 bars of backspin. This is the best way to play this shot.
There’s no need to add any sidespin or front spin, the backspin is enough.
There is a great opportunity for a hole in one here. Just make sure to aim correct and you are good to go.
Chateau Lavande Hole #3 (Par 5)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | Max Top + Max Left | 4-5 Top |
⛳️ Overadjust | 20% | 0% |
Ball | Titan (Rookie), Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Goliath (Rookie/Pro/Expert) | Grizly, Sniper (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
This is one of the most interesting holes in the tournament. Use a driver with minimum 230 yards of power. Combine this with a Power 3 ball and you will be on your way to get a good position for the second shot.

In your second shot, you will very likely be attempt a rough bump. Get a topspin depending on the wind angle. In general, it will be around 4-5 bars topspin..
Chateau Lavande Hole #4 (Par 3)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | 6 Top | |
⛳️ Overadjust | 10% | |
Ball | Kingmaker, Wind 5 (Rookie/Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Sniper, Quarterback (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
In this hole, you really want to use the fairway just above the bunker. This is a perfect spot for getting the ball into the pin
Add 6 bars of topspin so that you can get and bounce over that rough part like you can see it in the image. Also, make sure to use a ball like the Kingmaker to get additional power.
Chateau Lavande Hole #5 (Par 4)
Drive | ||
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | Max Top, Max Left | |
⛳️ Overadjust | 0% | 0% |
Ball | Katana (Rookie), Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Thorn, Backbone (Rookie), Grizzly (Pro/Expert) | Thorn, Backbone (Rookie), Grizzly (Pro/Expert) |
I really recommend you to not play with a driver with minimum 225 yards of power combined with a Power 3+ ball. Add max topspin and sidespin to the left. This will set you up for a better position while playing the second shot.
In the second shot, you can play with a short iron from a maximum distance. The shot will be played uphill and therefore it has to be under-adjusted.

Chateau Lavande Hole #6 (Par 5)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | Max Top, Max Right | 3 Top, 3 Back |
⛳️ Overadjust | 10% | 30% |
Ball | Titan (Rookie/Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Big Dawg (Rookie/Pro/Expert), Sniper (Pro/Expert) | Big Dawg (Rookie/Pro/Expert), Sniper (Pro/Expert) |
Here I recommend you to use a Power 3+ ball and a driver that gives you the most power. Add max topspin and combine it with enough sidespin to the right. Use max overpower with this shot, no matter the wind strength.
[adinserter block=”7″]
In your second hit, use a sniper. Get the ball to bounce on the fairway using all from 3 bars of topspin to 3 bars of sidespin.
Chateau Lavande Hole #7 (Par 3)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | Max Top; Max Right | |
⛳️ Overadjust | ||
Ball | Navigator, Quasar (Rookie), Kingmaker, Wind 5 (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Sniper, Guardian (Rookie) Quarterback, The Rock (Pro/Expert) | Sniper, Guardian (Rookie) Quarterback, The Rock (Pro/Expert) |
This is a very conservative hole here that you play simply straightforward to have the best chances for the eagle and a secure birdie in the Spring Major Tournament.
The rough bump is the best option to play this hole. However, you have to be careful as you can miss the rough if you don’t get the adjustment correct.

Chateau Lavande Hole #8 (Par 4)
Drive | ||
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | 4-5 Top | |
⛳️ Overadjust | 25% | |
Ball | Quasar (Rookie), Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Thorn, Backbone (Rookie), Thorn, Grizzly (Pro/Expert) | Thorn, Backbone (Rookie), Thorn, Grizzly (Pro/Expert) |
Use 4 to 5 bars of topspin to get the ball to as much as possible on the fairway. This will give you a great opportunity to adjust the shot for the pin in the second hit.
For the second shot, I recommend you to play with a short iron or a long iron. Go for a rough bump or attack the pin directly. Either way, you will have to bear in mind that this shot is played downhill and hence you have to adjust the shot accordinly.

Chateau Lavande Hole #9 (Par 5)
Drive | 2nd Shot | |
---|---|---|
↩️ Spin | Max Top | 3-4 Back |
⛳️ Overadjust | 10% | 10% |
Ball | Titan (Rookie), Kingmaker (Pro/Expert) | |
Club(s) | Sniper, Horizon, Backbone (Rookie/Pro/Expert) | Sniper, Horizon, Backbone (Rookie/Pro/Expert) |
Another hole that is all about distance and if you manage to gain enough distance in your drive you will have your eagle safe. Aim to get as much distance as possible on the fairway.

In your second shot, use a wood club. Horizon could be a good option for this shot.
Albatross is extremely difficult here so focus on getting close to the green and the pin.
