Hole 10 at Kapalua Resort (Plantation course)

Par 4 • 354 Yards • Lahaina, Hawaii

Enhanced Content

Moderate

The 10th hole at Kapalua Resort's Plantation course offers a deceptively challenging par 4 that exemplifies the course's strategic design philosophy. At 354 yards, this straight hole may appear straightforward from the championship tee, but the small green demands precision over power. The generous fairway encourages aggressive driving, yet the real test lies in the approach shot to a compact target that rewards accurate iron play. With minimal hazards flanking the hole, golfers can focus purely on course management and club selection. This mid-round gem perfectly captures Kapalua's reputation for rewarding thoughtful strategy, making it a memorable hole that separates skilled ball-strikers from the field during the annual PGA Tour's Tournament of Champions.
