The plan for No. 5

The play: A par 4 from an elevated tee with views back to the coast. Par 4, men's stroke index 10 (74 405, 70 388, 66 362, 62 357, 54 289 yards).

Shot by shot

  1. Off the tee

    The club: favour the left side of the fairway. A mapped finish 230 yards from this tee leaves 166 to the center. No mapped hazard sits within 25 yards of that finish, so the landing area is open.

  2. Approach & recovery

    A detached bunker sits short right of the green, with more sand left and back right. Miss short and centre.

  3. On the green

    The mapped green is about 60 yards deep and 47 yards wide. The club: it narrows toward the back and falls toward the sea.

  4. Watch for

    • Bunker front right of the green (slightly detached)
    • Bunkers left and back right of the green

Research notes

  • The green narrows toward the back and falls toward the sea, with a detached bunker short right and more bunkers left and back right. (Hole 5)[1]
  • 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)[2]
