Hole 15 at Torrey Pines Golf Club's South Course is a challenging par 5 for golfers of all levels. From the Championship tees, this hole plays 478 yards and has a handicap rating of 12. The fairway curves slightly to the left with an approximate width of 32 yards, so accuracy off the tee is important in order to set up your approach shot. Depending on the weather conditions and season, local altitude, temperature and wind can affect your ball flight when hitting from these tees. There are two bunkers along the fairway as well as three percent greenside bunkers guarding a green area that measures 8199 square feet. For players who prefer shorter distances off the tee, Pro (397 yards), Men's (359 yards), Seniors' (334 yards) and Women's (288 yard) tees are available with corresponding handicaps for each one. With an average driver length of 217 yards and 7 iron 140/pitching wedge 120 respectively, it may be wise to consider club selection when trying to reach this green in regulation shots or less!

Club Recommendations
1. When teeing off, aim for the center of the fairway and make sure to factor in the local altitude, temperature and wind conditions when hitting your ball.
2. Avoid hitting into any of the two bunkers along the fairway as they can lead to a difficult approach shot.
3. Use club selection wisely – consider using an average driver length of 217 yards or 7 iron 140/pitching wedge 120 respectively, depending on how far you want to reach this green in regulation shots or less!
4. For shorter distances off the tee, take advantage of Pro (397 yards), Men's (359 yards), Seniors' (334 yards) and Women's (288 yard) tees available with corresponding handicaps for each one that may help improve accuracy and distance control from those tees positions.
5. Be aware that there are three percent greenside bunkers guarding a green area measuring 8199 square feet so plan accordingly when trying to avoid them with your approach shot!
