Australia will fund world's longest golf course http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070919/od_uk_nm/oukoe_uk_australia_nullarbor_golf;_ylt=AlWLfy3v17tjUzTmwd0HB5ntiBIF Quote CANBERRA (Reuters) - Plans to build the world's longest golf course, across 1,200 km (750 miles) of treeless desert, received a welcome boost on Wednesday when the Australian government offered seed funding for the venture. The 18-hole course will stretch along the Eyre Highway which crosses the arid Nullarbor Plain in the south of the continent, with one hole placed in each town along the way, and one at a remote sheep farm. Doughty golfers who tee off in the Western Australian mining town of Kalgoorlie will end their round in the South Australian south coast town of Ceduna, more than 1,200 km to the east. more...
