HOLE-BY-HOLE INFO

1st Hole

Par 4 · 370

Pro’s Tip:
The opening hole is a straightaway par 4 that’s framed by out-of-bounds on both the left and right. A bunker guards the front-left of the putting surface.

Tee 1: 370

Tee 2: 304

Tee 3: 270

Tee 4: 408

2nd Hole

Par 4 · 333

Pro’s Tip:
A decision awaits players on the tee of this short par 4; try to drive the green or lay-up. The green on this hole is guarded by two greenside bunkers.

Tee 1: 333

Tee 2: 312

Tee 3: 276

Tee 4: 363

3rd Hole

Par 3 · 130

Pro’s Tip:
The shortest par 3 on the golf course, the third features a green that’s protected by a front bunker.

Tee 1: 130

Tee 2: 94

Tee 3: 75

Tee 4: 150

4th Hole

Par 5 · 497

Pro’s Tip:
The fourth hole is the first par 5 on the golf course. A fairway bunker on the left come in to play off the tee for most players, while the one on the right is only reachable by longer hitters.

Tee 1: 497

Tee 2: 452

Tee 3: 406

Tee 4: 529

5th Hole

Par 4 · 380

Pro’s Tip:
This dogleg left par 4 requires a tee shot, from the black tees, of about 200 yards and favoring the right side. The approach shot travels over a green to a green with two bunkers on the left side.

Tee 1: 380

Tee 2: 318

Tee 3: 254

Tee 4: 403

6th Hole

Par 4 · 344

Pro’s Tip:
This slight dogleg right par 4 can be shortened a bit by longer hitters who take their tee shot down the right, risking the out-of-bounds on the same side. The second shot plays straight uphill and will require more club than the yardage indicates. The putting surface has a false front and bunker on the right side.

Tee 1: 344

Tee 2: 305

Tee 3: 234

Tee 4: 378

7th Hole

Par 4 · 388

Pro’s Tip:
The seventh is the hardest on the golf course for men. This par 4 is straight and narrow off the tee, with reachable bunkers on the left and right. One of the most difficult greens on the golf course awaits players, which features slopes on both sides and a penalty area long.

Tee 1: 388

Tee 2: 342

Tee 3: 305

Tee 4: 423

8th Hole

Par 3 · 162

Pro’s Tip:
This straightaway par 3 plays over a creek. Tee shots should favor the left as there’s a severe slope on the right.

Tee 1: 162

Tee 2: 117

Tee 3: 79

Tee 4: 192

9th Hole

Par 4 · 422

Pro’s Tip:
The front nine closes with a scenic par 4, where the ideal tee shot will favor the left side of the fairway to avoid the left-to-right slope leading to the water on the right.

Tee 1: 422

Tee 2: 286

Tee 3: 244

Tee 4: 437

10th Hole

Par 4 · 399

Pro’s Tip:
The back nine opens with a difficult par 4. Tee shots must carry a ravine that slopes to the right, followed by a downhill approach to a flat green.

Tee 1: 399

Tee 2: 347

Tee 3: 273

Tee 4: 424

11th Hole

Par 4 · 321

Pro’s Tip:
A drive down the left-center of this par 4 will leave players the best angle into an elevated green. Anything past the 100 yard marker tends to roll down the slope into the rough.

Tee 1: 321

Tee 2: 288

Tee 3: 246

Tee 4: 348

12th Hole

Par 3 · 159

Pro’s Tip:
The green on this par 3 slopes severely left-to-right. Players will have to avoid the left bunker as they let the green feed their ball right.

Tee 1: 159

Tee 2: 114

Tee 3: 105

Tee 4: 193

13th Hole

Par 5 · 527

Pro’s Tip:
A demanding tee shot awaits players on the par 5, thirteenth hole. Out-of-bounds runs down the left and a penalty area on the right mean accuracy is rewarded here. Then, a stream runs in front of the green, so a lay-up second is usually the play.

Tee 1: 527

Tee 2: 461

Tee 3: 390

Tee 4: 565

14th Hole

Par 4 · 387

Pro’s Tip:
This par 4 features a blind uphill tee shot with water on the left that’s reachable for most players. The approach shot is slightly uphill as well to a green that’s guarded by bunkers short right and long.

Tee 1: 387

Tee 2: 335

Tee 3: 303

Tee 4: 427

15th Hole

Par 3 · 162

Pro’s Tip:
The fifteenth is the most scenic par 3 on the golf course. It requires a tee shot that carries the trouble to a green with a hump in the middle that slopes left and right.

Tee 1: 162

Tee 2: 122

Tee 3: 77

Tee 4: 200

16th Hole

Par 4 · 353

Pro’s Tip:
This dogleg left par 4 features a bunker on the left that catches a lot of tee shots. The approach plays slightly uphill to a green that’s tiered and slopes back-to-front.

Tee 1: 353

Tee 2: 318

Tee 3: 251

Tee 4: 381

17th Hole

Par 5 · 478

Pro’s Tip:
A short downhill par 5, the seventeenth usually provides players with a opportunity for birdie. This green is fairly narrow, though, so shots will have to be accurate.

Tee 1: 478

Tee 2: 423

Tee 3: 374

Tee 4: 515

18th Hole

Par 4 · 382

Pro’s Tip:
The finishing hole is a long par 4 that plays uphill to a raised green that’s guarded by bunkers.

Tee 1: 382

Tee 2: 323

Tee 3: 291

Tee 4: 436
