Strategy Tips

tee shot

This demanding 220-yard par 3 requires precise club selection and commitment to your line. With no fairway width at any distance, you must carry your tee shot directly to the green - there's no bailout area for a conservative play.

green

Target the center of this generous 5,862 square foot green (23y x 46y) rather than chasing pin positions. The green's substantial size provides room for error, so play to the middle and let your putting take over.

hazard warning

Beware of the bunker complex positioned 82.7 yards from the green - likely short and left of the putting surface. Missing short on this long par 3 will leave you in sand with a challenging up-and-down to save par.

approach

With no landing zone available from the tee, this is a true 'target golf' hole designed by Greg Norman. Take one extra club to ensure you clear any fronting hazards and reach the putting surface - coming up short is not an option.

tee shot

The complete absence of fairway width (0 yards at both 200y and 250y) confirms this hole's all-or-nothing design philosophy. Commit fully to your club selection and swing with confidence - tentative swings rarely succeed on holes like this.

train this shot at home
