How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 5 · 504 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. On the hole: The burn, The arm, Cart path, Lava pool, 1 bunker.
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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 2Par 4 · 305 yards
Wind: 9 mph, into you. On the hole: Water, 2 bunkers.
Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop.
Hole 3Par 4 · 355 yards
Wind: 11 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, 2 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.
Hole 4Par 4 · 325 yards
Wind: 5 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 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 5Par 4 · 434 yards
Wind: 7 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: A gust band, Lava pool, 3 bunkers, 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 6Par 3 · 212 yards
Wind: 5 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, Water, 2 bunkers.
212 yards, playing about 216 with the wind — on paper a 5 wood. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
Hole 7Par 5 · 534 yards
Wind: 7 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, 1 bunker.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 8Par 4 · 433 yards
Wind: 8 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, 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.
Hole 9Par 4 · 317 yards
Wind: 6 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, 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.
