  "account": "The golf world is focusing on the Netherlands this September, as the Bernardus Golf Club prepares to host the Solheim Cup. Situated 60 miles southeast of Amsterdam, this modern inland course is set to bring a new style of play to the country's golf scene. Designed by Kyle Phillips, the course offers a mix of heathland and dramatic visual elements, including expansive bunkering, wide ditches, and lakes on the front nine. Notable holes include the challenging par-3 17th and par-3 8th, both featuring water hazards that will create tension during the competition. Playing at a par 72 and measuring 6,557 yards, the course maintains immaculate conditions, which is essential for professional play. With amenities including a restaurant, spa, and practice facilities, the Bernardus Golf Club demonstrates the Netherlands' growing confidence in modern inland golf, moving away from its traditional coastal reputation.",
