If you take St Andrews out of the equation, Royal Lytham is my favourite Championship course.

You have to play methodically, use your brains and above all keep out of the bunkers - all 198 of them.

But Lytham is really made by the wind. If there is no breeze, there will be some very low scores.

Click on my scorecard to see each hole for yourself and hear my advice on how best to get round Royal Lytham.
