Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 5 · 484 yards
Wind: 17 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: The burn, The arm, A gust band, Cart path, 2 bunkers.
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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 2Par 3 · 201 yards
Wind: 17 mph, helping, right to left. 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 3Par 4 · 346 yards
Wind: 12 mph, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, A gust band, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 4Par 4 · 349 yards
Wind: 15 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers, Kick boulder.
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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 5Par 5 · 328 yards
Wind: 20 mph, helping, right to left. 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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 6Par 5 · 532 yards
Wind: 16 mph, right to left. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 7Par 4 · 348 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Water, 3 bunkers, Kick boulder.
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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 8Par 5 · 510 yards
Wind: 16 mph, helping. On the hole: 4 bunkers, Kick boulder.
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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 9Par 3 · 143 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping, right to left. 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
