This is a good golf hole. The view from the tee is fantastic.
This hole has six tees. The farthest one back is 491 yards.
This is golf hole from back here. With the way the equipment technology is progressing, a few years from now this might not be quite as tough a par four. But I don't think in our lifetime they'll ever be a better one.
The fairway slopes from right to left, so anything down the left side that's too close to the water will get a left-hand kick. I try to start my tee shot between the second and third bunkers on the right.
The second shot here is unbelievable. It's a tiered green you're aiming at, and if you miss it, you want to miss it to the right. However, when you get down to the green you'll see some trouble that you can't see from the fairway.
The sand bunker in the left front of the green has a rather unique design, and like all of Fazio's bunkers, it has a great effect on your shot to the green.
There is some severity in slope around this green, but not as much as with the shorter holes. However, there is enough slope here to cause you plenty of difficulty.
This is a hole that the first time you walk up to the tee and look down the fairway, you just go wow, this is really something special.
