How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 386 yards
Wind: 12 mph, right to left. On the hole: Water, 1 bunker.
Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 2Par 7 · 1049 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, A gust band, 2 water hazards, 6 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 3Par 3 · 205 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers.
205 yards, playing about 201 with the wind — on paper a 4 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 4Par 3 · 166 yards
Wind: 10 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 1 bunker.
166 yards, playing about 162 with the wind — on paper an 8 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 5Par 5 · 376 yards
Wind: 20 mph, right to left. On the hole: The crossing, A gust band.
Played island to island over open water. Each shot only has to reach the next stepping stone, so choose the club for the stone, not the flag. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 6Par 4 · 367 yards
Wind: 8 mph, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, Cart path, 4 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 · 433 yards
Wind: 7 mph, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, Water, 2 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 8Par 4 · 356 yards
Wind: 7 mph, right to left. On the hole: The arm, 3 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 9Par 4 · 324 yards
Wind: 14 mph, right to left. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, 3 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
