The plan for No. 15

The play: A long par 4 that heads back inland to start the four-hole finish. Par 4, men's stroke index 1 (74 482, 70 453, 66 436, 62 409, 54 346 yards). The second-hardest hole of the 2023 DP World Tour event.

Shot by shot

  1. Off the tee

    The landing area is generous, so driver is the play. The club's line is the right-side fairway bunker. A mapped finish 230 yards from this tee leaves 237 to the center. Left water 2 runs 205 to 255 yards from this tee.

  2. Approach & recovery

    The club: an approach that just clears the bunker short right feeds onto the green. Miss right into the hollow rather than left into the sand.

  3. On the green

    The mapped green is about 104 yards deep and 42 yards wide: one double green shared with the 12th. Along your line its front is about 46 yards short of the centre and its back about 52 past it, so check the flag with a rangefinder. Tour 2023: the hardest green to hit (63% in regulation); approaches finished 39 feet away on average.

  4. Watch for

    • Fairway bunker right
    • Bunkers left of the green
    • Hollow right of the green

Research notes

  • A boldly contoured green (shared with the 12th) with bunkers left and a low hollow right; approaches that just clear the right-side bunker feed toward it. (Hole 15)[1]
  • The second hardest hole in 2023 and the hardest green to hit (63% in regulation); approaches finished 39 feet from the hole on average, the farthest on the course. (Hole 15)[2]
  • The fairways are among the widest on tour but missing them is heavily punished, and the very large greens mean more long lag putts than usual when the wind blows. (Keys to performing well)[3]
