As you approach the tee box, take note of your surroundings as they may impact your shot. The altitude here at Westwoods can cause changes in ball flight conditions, so be sure to adjust accordingly. Additionally, keep an eye on the weather as it can vary greatly across all four seasons in this region.
For male golfers hitting from the championship tees, we recommend using a driver for this shot which typically travels around 217 yards. For female golfers playing from these tees, consider using a pitching wedge which averages around 120 yards.
The green area measures approximately 7277 square feet and features just one bunker located on the left side of the green.

With no water hazards present on this hole, your main focus should be on avoiding that greenside bunker and getting onto the large putting surface safely. Keep in mind that due to its size and shape (a slight dogleg right), club selection will be key when approaching this green.
