How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 333 yards
Wind: 7 mph, against, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, Cart path, 1 bunker, 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 2Par 4 · 341 yards
Wind: 9 mph, against, right to left. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 1 bunker, 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 3Par 3 · 154 yards
Wind: 9 mph, against, right to left. 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 · 348 yards
Wind: 7 mph, against, 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 5Par 4 · 414 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, Lava pool, 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 6Par 4 · 358 yards
Wind: 9 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, 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 7Par 5 · 513 yards
Wind: 7 mph, right to left. On the hole: Portal green, Cart path, Water, 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 8Par 5 · 311 yards
Wind: 17 mph, into you. 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 9Par 3 · 141 yards
Wind: 11 mph, into you. On the hole: 2 bunkers.
141 yards, playing about 147 with the wind — on paper an 8 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out.
