Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 452-yard par 4 demands accuracy off the tee with the fairway maintaining a consistent 36-yard width at both the 200 and 250-yard marks. Position your drive in the 200-250 yard range to set up the optimal approach angle while avoiding the bunkers positioned at 346.7 and 366.4 yards.

approach

With bunkers strategically placed at 346.7 and 366.4 yards from the tee, a well-positioned drive leaves approximately 180-200 yards to a generous 7,350 square foot green. The approach shot is critical as the green slopes from front right to back left toward Hazeltine Lake.

green

The large putting surface measures 32 yards by 38 yards, but don't let the size fool you. Target the front portion of the green as balls without sufficient spin will roll off the back slope directly into Hazeltine Lake behind the green.

hazard warning

Hazeltine Lake lurks behind this green, making club selection crucial on your approach. The green's front-right to back-left slope means any shot that comes up short of spin or lands too aggressively will feed toward the water hazard.

approach

The bunker positioned at 392.4 yards from the tee protects the green complex. Factor this hazard into your approach strategy, especially if you've hit a longer drive that brings this greenside bunker into play.
