Challenging

The seventh at Streamsong Resort (Black Course) presents a deceptively challenging par 3 that epitomizes the course's strategic design philosophy. From the elevated tee, this 178-yard test demands precision over a rolling landscape that Tom Doak masterfully carved from former phosphate mining terrain. The small green sits as an inviting target, but its compact dimensions leave little margin for error on approach shots. Without the distraction of bunkers or water hazards, golfers must rely purely on club selection and execution, making wind conditions a critical factor in this exposed setting. The hole's understated elegance and demand for accuracy create a memorable test that rewards commitment and punishes indecision, perfectly capturing the minimalist brilliance that has made Streamsong's Black Course a modern architectural gem.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Club selection is critical on this 178-yard par 3 - take one extra club to ensure you clear the bunkers and reach the putting surface with confidence

hazard warning

Three bunkers guard this hole at 19, 46, and 146 yards from the tee - the greenside bunker at 146 yards is your primary concern and must be carried

green

Target the center of this generous 9,415 square foot green (51x37 yards) - the large putting surface gives you room for error if your distance control is slightly off

approach

With no fairway landing area available, this is a pure carry shot - commit to your club selection and swing with confidence to clear all hazards

tee shot

Play for the back half of the green on this 178-yard hole - better to be long on a 51-yard deep green than short in the bunker at 146 yards
