No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 384 yards
Wind: 13 mph, into you. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, Water, Lava pool, 1 bunker, Basalt rock.
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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 2Par 5 · 507 yards
Wind: 12 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, Cart path, Water, 1 bunker, 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 3Par 6 · 900 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, A gust band, 4 bunkers, Basalt rock.
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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 4Par 3 · 143 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. 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 5Par 4 · 325 yards
Wind: 11 mph, against, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, Water, 4 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 6Par 4 · 372 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. On the hole: 4 bunkers, Basalt rock.
A rock sits in the landing area. It stops a rolling ball and kicks it hard up the hole: fly it, steer around it, or play the rebound for extra yards. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 7Par 5 · 501 yards
Wind: 12 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 3 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 8Par 4 · 307 yards
Wind: 15 mph, into you. On the hole: Water, Lava pool, 2 bunkers.
Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 9Par 4 · 312 yards
Wind: 14 mph, into you. On the hole: The crossing.
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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
