The plan for No. 1

The play: Treat the opening dogleg left as a positioning par 5. The central landing bunker creates two routes around the bend.

Shot by shot

  1. Off the tee

    The broader right portion of the first fairway gives a clearer look forward. Cutting left offers a shorter route with a tighter landing area.

  2. Approach & recovery

    Build the second shot around an unobstructed approach between the final bunker groups. The entrance to the green is accessible from the front and left.

  3. On the green

    The architect describes a gently shaped putting surface. Favor the accessible entrance instead of forcing a line over the protecting sand.

  4. Watch for

    • Bunker dividing the first landing area
    • Bunker groups along the dogleg and approach
