TPC at Sawgrass Hole by Hole - 16th Hole

For low handicappers, the Championship and Pro tee boxes offer a great opportunity to make an eagle on this par 5 hole. With drives that can reach over 280 yards, these players should aim for the fairway bunkers to avoid any potential hazards such as water or rough areas. From there, they can use their precision and accuracy to approach the green in regulation and give themselves a good chance at birdie or even eagle.

For mid handicappers, the Men’s tee box provides a more manageable distance of 470 yards. However, with drives averaging around 230+ yards, these players must be cautious of both water hazards and fairway bunkers when strategizing their shots. It may be wise to lay up short of the bunkers and take an extra shot to ensure avoiding any trouble on this challenging hole.

Lastly, high handicappers will find themselves challenged by this hole regardless of which tee box they choose. With distances ranging from 200-230+ yards off the tee depending on skill level, it is crucial for these players to focus on accuracy rather than distance. Avoiding fairway bunkers is key here as well as playing smart shots towards safe landing zones instead of trying for long shots that could potentially lead to mistakes.

Weather conditions at TPC Sawgrass are often hot and humid throughout most seasons with occasional rain showers during summer months. This can impact ball flight by causing it to fly shorter distances due to increased air density but also allowing for more spin control on greenside approaches.

In conclusion, whether you’re a low or high handicapper playing TPC Sawgrass’ Hole 16 requires careful strategy based on your individual skill level and weather conditions present during play. Keep in mind that while low handicappers may have opportunities for eagles here, risk mitigation is still important in order achieve optimal scoring results.
