How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 404 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (3 mph). On the hole: Portal green, Water, 1 bunker.
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 · 308 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (4 mph). 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.
Hole 3Par 3 · 143 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (2 mph). On the hole: Island green, A gust band.
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 4Par 4 · 438 yards
Wind: 5 mph, against, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, A gust band, 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 5Par 4 · 404 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (3 mph). On the hole: 2 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 6Par 4 · 432 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: 2 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 7Par 5 · 557 yards
Wind: 9 mph, right to left. 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 8Par 4 · 424 yards
Wind: 6 mph, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 3 bunkers.
The cart path runs about twice as far as fairway. On a straight stretch it's worth aiming at on purpose.
Hole 9Par 3 · 189 yards
Wind: 6 mph, right to left. On the hole: Water, 2 bunkers.
189 yards, playing about 191 with the wind — on paper a 4 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
