How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 418 yards
Wind: 8 mph, left to right. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 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 2Par 3 · 196 yards
Wind: 12 mph, left to right. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 1 bunker.
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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball right.
Hole 3Par 4 · 328 yards
Wind: 9 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, A gust band, Cart path, Lava pool, 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 4Par 6 · 901 yards
Wind: 9 mph, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, A gust band, Water, Lava pool, 5 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.
Hole 5Par 4 · 405 yards
Wind: 12 mph, left to right. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball right.
Hole 6Par 4 · 387 yards
Wind: 8 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: The arm, Water, 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 7Par 4 · 341 yards
Wind: 11 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, 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 3 · 135 yards
Wind: 8 mph, against, left to right. 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 9Par 5 · 472 yards
Wind: 7 mph, left to right. 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.
