Hole 10 at TPC Scottsdale (Stadium course)
Par 4 • 428 Yards • Scottsdale, Arizona
The 10th hole at TPC Scottsdale (Stadium course) presents a deceptively straightforward par 4 that demands precision over power. At 428 yards, this straight-away hole appears generous from the tee, but the small green complex becomes the primary defensive feature. The absence of major hazards shifts focus entirely to approach shot accuracy, as players must navigate to a compact target that offers little margin for error. The elevated tee provides excellent visibility down the fairway, creating a false sense of security before revealing the hole's true test. What makes this hole memorable is its pure emphasis on course management and iron play execution, rewarding strategic thinking over aggressive shot-making in the desert landscape.

Strategy Tips
Target the fairway's wider section at 250 yards to maximize your approach angle. The fairway expands from 43 yards wide at 200 yards to 55 yards wide at 250 yards, giving longer hitters a significant advantage.
Three greenside bunkers create a defensive wall around the green at 373-384 yards from the tee. Plan your approach to avoid the bunker cluster, especially the one at 373.5 yards which guards the front-left approach.
With the green measuring 35 yards wide by 32 yards deep (6,161 sq ft), club selection is critical from your approach distance. The relatively compact green demands precise distance control rather than directional accuracy.
Shorter hitters should focus on positioning in the 200-yard zone where the fairway is 43 yards wide, accepting a longer approach shot to avoid the trouble around the green.
The green's 32-yard depth provides multiple pin positions, but at 428 yards total length, most approaches will be mid-to-long irons requiring committed swings to reach the putting surface.
This 428-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
