Australia introduces the world's longest golf course. 848 miles!

Around a week ago I was browsing the BBC News website, as I believe that you can always find an interesting read. So, I found an unusual article about Australia...

I have never myself had the pleasure in trying a little bit of golf but thinking about it on a serious level, what a great combination of the two. A country with the most breathtaking, peaceful views and a sport that requires concentration and the sound of nature to accompany the golfers mind. What an awesome idea!

The golf course, known beforehand as the 'world's most gruelling car journey' has been opened to the world after five years of planning and is slowly becoming a tourist attraction. The reasons? Due to its size which covers two states, the amount of wildlife present and also a passion for the sport in such a beautiful destination have proven to be the most popular factors. The future looks bright for this development, so click below for a thorough read.
