Hole 4 at Wilshire Country Club

Par 3 • 193 Yards • Los Angeles, California

Enhanced Content

Tough

The fourth hole at Wilshire Country Club presents a deceptively challenging par 3 that demands precision over power. At 193 yards, this straight shot requires golfers to navigate to a small, well-protected green that rewards accuracy above all else. The elevated tee provides excellent visibility of the target, but the compact putting surface leaves little margin for error on the approach shot. Without significant hazards to distract, players must focus entirely on club selection and tempo to find the green. What makes Wilshire Country Club hole 4 memorable is its pure test of iron play—a classic mid-length par 3 that separates confident ball-strikers from those still developing their precision game.
