How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 337 yards
Wind: 7 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 2Par 3 · 142 yards
Wind: 9 mph, into you. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers.
142 yards, playing about 148 with the wind — on paper an 8 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 3Par 3 · 141 yards
Wind: 8 mph, into you. On the hole: 2 bunkers.
141 yards, playing about 146 with the wind — on paper an 8 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 4Par 4 · 416 yards
Wind: 8 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: The burn, The arm, Cart path, 4 bunkers.
The burn cuts across on the diagonal. The short carry leaves a long approach; the long carry leaves a short one. Pick your price on the tee, or use the bridge.
Hole 5Par 5 · 475 yards
Wind: 8 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, Lava pool, 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 6Par 4 · 440 yards
Wind: 5 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, Water, Lava pool, 1 bunker, Basalt rock.
A band of fast air crosses the hole. Fly over it or stay under it — what you can't do is hang the ball in it.
Hole 7Par 5 · 498 yards
Wind: 5 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, 3 bunkers, Basalt rock.
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 8Par 4 · 318 yards
Wind: 7 mph, into you. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 9Par 5 · 496 yards
Wind: 9 mph, into you. On the hole: 2 bunkers.
A long one at 496 yards. Keep both shots on the fairway — it rolls out nearly five times further than rough — and the green comes back to you.
