This is an extremely long par 4 at 690 yards - essentially a short par 5 for most golfers. The fairway is completely blocked at 200 yards, creating a forced layup situation off the tee.
With no fairway width at 200 yards, plan a conservative tee shot to around 180-190 yards to stay short of the hazard or narrowing that blocks the fairway completely.
Your second shot becomes critical - the fairway opens to 36 yards wide at 250 yards from the tee, giving you a reasonable target for positioning your approach to this marathon hole.
Multiple bunkers guard the approach zone at 315, 367, and 375 yards from the tee. Plan your layup carefully to avoid these Pete Dye hazards that protect the green complex.
The compact green measures just 30x20 yards (3,596 sq ft), making accuracy paramount on your final approach. With Pete Dye's signature contoured greens, focus on hitting the correct section rather than going for pins.
This 390-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
