How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 346 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (3 mph). On the hole: Portal green, 3 bunkers, Kick boulder.
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.
Hole 2Par 4 · 386 yards
Wind: 5 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, Cart path, 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 3Par 4 · 428 yards
Wind: 6 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 4Par 4 · 389 yards
Wind: 5 mph, helping. 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 5Par 3 · 137 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (4 mph). 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 6Par 4 · 317 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping. On the hole: Portal green, A gust band, Cart path, 3 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.
Hole 7Par 4 · 324 yards
Wind: 5 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: A gust band, Water, 2 bunkers.
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 8Par 3 · 161 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping. On the hole: Water, 1 bunker.
161 yards, playing about 157 with the wind — on paper an 8 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 9Par 5 · 581 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, 4 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.
