Set against the rolling hills of Rancho Santa Fe, the hole presents a deceptively straightforward challenge that has humbled countless golfers over the years. The generous fairway invites an aggressive tee shot, but the real test lies in the approach to a small, well-protected green complex that punishes anything less than perfect execution.
