HOLE-BY-HOLE

1st Hole

Par 4 · 450

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 - The opening hole requires a tee shot down the middle. The green is well bunkered, so an accurate approach is a must.

Tee 1: 450

Tee 2: 377

Tee 3: 375

Tee 4: 344

Tee 5: 312

Tee 6: 305

2nd Hole

Par 5 · 520

Pro’s Tip:
Par 5 – This slight dogleg left, is reachable in 2 for the longer hitters. Fairway bunkers on the left and right side of the sloped fairway fairway require an accurate tee shot. This is a hole to take advantage of, and make a birdie early in your round.

Tee 1: 520

Tee 2: 531

Tee 3: 485

Tee 4: 482

Tee 5: 450

Tee 6: 446

3rd Hole

Par 4 · 475

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – One of the longer Par 4’s on the course. The landing area has a uphill pitch which makes the hole play even longer. A drive in the fairway is important here. With a large green, there are multiple challenging hole locations.

Tee 1: 475

Tee 2: 435

Tee 3: 420

Tee 4: 420

Tee 5: 333

Tee 6: 323

4th Hole

Par 4 · 418

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – A slight dogleg right, with an uphill second shot makes this hole challenging. With 3 bunkers surrounding the green, choosing the right club for the approach shot is crucial.

Tee 1: 418

Tee 2: 380

Tee 3: 378

Tee 4: 375

Tee 5: 356

Tee 6: 350

5th Hole

Par 3 · 185

Pro’s Tip:
Par 3 – This hole requires a precise iron shot over the water to the two-tiered green. With a rear pin placement, plenty of spin is needed to hold the ball on the top tier.

Tee 1: 185

Tee 2: 182

Tee 3: 173

Tee 4: 153

Tee 5: 140

Tee 6: 139

6th Hole

Par 4 · 393

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – A severe dogleg-left. Players who choose to go for it have to carry water and a row of palm trees. A safer tee shot is to the landing area down the right side. The well-trapped green slopes severely from back to front, causing most players to attempt to keep the ball below the hole.

Tee 1: 393

Tee 2: 393

Tee 3: 375

Tee 4: 346

Tee 5: 329

Tee 6: 327

7th Hole

Par 4 · 393

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – A sharp dogleg left asks for a tee shot to the left-center of the fairway. This is the only way to take the trap and mound on the right and trees on the left out of the approach shot.

Tee 1: 393

Tee 2: 393

Tee 3: 363

Tee 4: 334

Tee 5: 268

Tee 6: 264

8th Hole

Par 3 · 185

Pro’s Tip:
Par 3 – Hole 8 is short on yardage and long on intimidation. The elevated green guarded by two traps taunts the players from the tee.

Tee 1: 185

Tee 2: 169

Tee 3: 170

Tee 4: 166

Tee 5: 155

Tee 6: 148

9th Hole

Par 5 · 538

Pro’s Tip:
Par 5 – A sharp dogleg-left, the tee and second shots are tight, tree-lined target areas. The subtle undulations on the green often surprise many a golfer.

Tee 1: 538

Tee 2: 538

Tee 3: 527

Tee 4: 501

Tee 5: 476

Tee 6: 454

10th Hole

Par 4 · 382

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – This wide fairway allows players to be aggressive off the tee. Fairway bunkers line both sides, but players favor the right. This leaves a clean approach to the deepest green on the course.

Tee 1: 382

Tee 2: 388

Tee 3: 375

Tee 4: 354

Tee 5: 330

Tee 6: 330

11th Hole

Par 5 · 554

Pro’s Tip:
Par 5 – Long hitters can find the green in two, as long as the narrow fairway is found off the tee. Varying pin placements increase the difficulty on the green.

Tee 1: 554

Tee 2: 536

Tee 3: 512

Tee 4: 510

Tee 5: 493

Tee 6: 488

12th Hole

Par 4 · 438

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – A birdie is possible on this downwind rolling fairway with a slight dogleg left. A well-placed drive is important to miss the midpoint bunker just before the trees.

Tee 1: 438

Tee 2: 388

Tee 3: 380

Tee 4: 359

Tee 5: 334

Tee 6: 324

13th Hole

Par 4 · 448

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – One of the more difficult holes on the course, 13 begins a four-hole stretch that separates the champion from the rest of the field. The large, tiered green is notorious for not holding approach shots.

Tee 1: 448

Tee 2: 424

Tee 3: 408

Tee 4: 387

Tee 5: 354

Tee 6: 345

14th Hole

Par 3 · 191

Pro’s Tip:
Par 3 – Even though this is the shortest hole on the course, it requires accuracy and good timing due to shifting winds, bunkers and water. The tee is elevated and the fairway slopes downward, making club selection crucial.

Tee 1: 191

Tee 2: 148

Tee 3: 162

Tee 4: 160

Tee 5: 150

Tee 6: 132

15th Hole

Par 4 · 405

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – No. 15 has the reputation for being the toughest driving hole on the course. Bunkers on the left at mid-point and trees on both sides of the fairway leave little room for stray tee shots. The green is elevated and well-guarded by deep bunkers.

Tee 1: 405

Tee 2: 386

Tee 3: 380

Tee 4: 351

Tee 5: 345

Tee 6: 326

16th Hole

Par 4 · 437

Pro’s Tip:
Par 4 – Consistently ranked as the most difficult hole on the course, staying out of the trees on the right is crucial. The green is hard to read with its many subtle contours. Most players are glad to take par on this hole.

Tee 1: 437

Tee 2: 418

Tee 3: 388

Tee 4: 384

Tee 5: 355

Tee 6: 350

17th Hole

Par 3 · 192

Pro’s Tip:
Par 3 – No. 17’s tee shot is deceptively more difficult than it looks. The green is uphill from the tee and is protected on the front and in the rear by deep bunkers.

Tee 1: 192

Tee 2: 180

Tee 3: 175

Tee 4: 170

Tee 5: 145

Tee 6: 137

18th Hole

Par 5 · 646

Pro’s Tip:
Par 5 – The most famous hole on the LPGA tour features the legendary Poppie’s Pond where the winner of the ANA Inspirations jumps in each year. The island green is huge with hard-to-read contours requiring accuracy and skill with the putter.

Tee 1: 646

Tee 2: 377

Tee 3: 526

Tee 4: 525

Tee 5: 496

Tee 6: 485
