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.
