How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 308 yards
Wind: 8 mph, left to right. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, Lava pool, 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 2Par 4 · 366 yards
Wind: 6 mph, left to right. On the hole: The burn, Cart path, Lava pool, 3 bunkers, Basalt rock.
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.
Hole 3Par 4 · 422 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (4 mph). On the hole: The arm, A gust band, 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 4Par 4 · 380 yards
Wind: 5 mph, helping, 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 5Par 4 · 365 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (2 mph). 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.
Hole 6Par 3 · 159 yards
Wind: 5 mph, left to right. 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 7Par 5 · 517 yards
Wind: Barely any wind (2 mph). On the hole: 3 bunkers.
A long one at 517 yards. Keep both shots on the fairway — it rolls out nearly five times further than rough — and the green comes back to you.
Hole 8Par 5 · 531 yards
Wind: 6 mph, left to right. On the hole: Cart path, Water, 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 4 · 334 yards
Wind: 7 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: 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.
