How the field played
No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 422 yards
Wind: 6 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: Water, 2 bunkers.
Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop.
Hole 2Par 5 · 533 yards
Wind: 5 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: 2 bunkers.
A long one at 533 yards. Keep both shots on the fairway — it rolls out nearly five times further than rough — and the green comes back to you.
Hole 3Par 5 · 493 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, Cart path, 4 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 4 · 400 yards
Wind: 10 mph, helping. 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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 5Par 3 · 159 yards
Wind: 12 mph, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball right.
Hole 6Par 3 · 184 yards
Wind: 11 mph, helping. On the hole: A gust band, 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.
Hole 7Par 4 · 382 yards
Wind: 9 mph, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, Cart path, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball right.
Hole 8Par 4 · 328 yards
Wind: 9 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, Water, 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 9Par 5 · 583 yards
Wind: 8 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: Water, 3 bunkers.
Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop.
