This is a deceptively difficult hole to par, not because of the length or the hazards for the tee shot. The reason it is a hole to respect is on account of the approach which is fraught with danger. An easy driving hole, the second shot (assuming there is not a strong tail wind, thus tempting the long carry) should be placed about 100 yards from the green to avoid the strategically placed bunkering on either side. Then the fun begins as you turn 90 degrees left and attempt to clear a large cavernous greenside bunker that appears smaller than it actually is. There is a 'bail-out' to the right side of the green but that will invariably leave a very long and difficult putt across a sever slope. |
