Challenging

The 10th hole at Broken Sound Club (Old Course) marks the turn with a deceptively straightforward par 4 that demands precision over power. This 401-yard test features Rees Jones' masterful redesign philosophy, presenting a generous fairway that invites aggressive tee shots while subtly punishing wayward drives.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the 200-yard mark with your tee shot to find the widest part of the fairway at 36 yards, giving you maximum room for error and the best angle into this 401-yard par 4.

hazard warning

Avoid the aggressive line - bunkers positioned at 344.8 and 406.8 yards will catch longer drives that stray from the fairway center, especially dangerous as the fairway pinches to just 23 yards at the 250-yard mark.

approach

With the green measuring 17 yards wide by 34 yards deep, club selection is critical - the narrow width demands precision, while the 34-yard depth allows you to play for the center and let the ball release.

green

The compact 3,463 square foot green rewards accuracy over aggression - focus on finding the putting surface rather than attacking pins, as missed greens will be difficult to recover from.
