How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 3 · 133 yards
Wind: 8 mph, helping. On the hole: Cart path, Water, 1 bunker.
133 yards, playing about 129 with the wind — on paper a pitching wedge. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 2Par 4 · 389 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, 2 bunkers.
The arm sweeps a stretch of the hole and knocks the ball clear. You can't shoot around it, so land short of it or beyond it.
Hole 3Par 3 · 141 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping. On the hole: Island green.
All carry and no bailout. Take enough club for the middle of the green — short is wet, and the thin collar only just holds.
Hole 4Par 6 · 846 yards
Wind: 8 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, 5 bunkers.
The arm sweeps a stretch of the hole and knocks the ball clear. You can't shoot around it, so land short of it or beyond it.
Hole 5Par 5 · 547 yards
Wind: 8 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, 1 bunker.
The arm sweeps a stretch of the hole and knocks the ball clear. You can't shoot around it, so land short of it or beyond it.
Hole 6Par 4 · 422 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping. On the hole: Portal green, A gust band, Cart path, 2 bunkers.
A portal green sits short of the real one. Sink it and you come out beside the pin — but a ball that misses it stops dead, so only go for it with a clean strike. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 7Par 4 · 321 yards
Wind: 11 mph, helping. On the hole: Cart path, 3 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 8Par 4 · 393 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: 4 bunkers.
Fairway first. Rough keeps only 84% of your distance and stops the ball dead, so a shorter, straighter tee shot often finishes further up.
Hole 9Par 5 · 535 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping. On the hole: 3 bunkers.
A long one at 535 yards. Keep both shots on the fairway — it rolls out nearly five times further than rough — and the green comes back to you.
