The plan for No. 9
The uphill approach to Bellerive's most complicated green makes the ninth difficult even when its listed yardage is manageable.
Off the tee
Find the fairway and avoid the left bunkers to preserve distance control uphill.
Approach & recovery
Play the effective uphill number and identify the front bowl or upper section before choosing a target.
On the green
Expect long, curving lag putts when the approach finishes on the wrong level.
Watch for
- left fairway bunkers
- greenside sand and left runoff
