From the Championship tees, this hole plays to an average golfer's drive of 217 yards and should be played down the right side of the fairway for optimal approach angles. A water hazard runs along the entire left side of this hole, so golfers should be mindful when selecting their tee shot. The fairway is 49 yards wide and slopes gently from right to left towards the green. Greenside bunkers as a percentage of total are 1%, so golfers should feel confident attempting shots onto this well-protected green from all angles and distances.
