No verified cards were posted for this day.
Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 5 · 561 yards
Wind: 12 mph, against, right to left. On the hole: The arm, 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 · 333 yards
Wind: 15 mph, into you. On the hole: The arm, 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 3Par 4 · 399 yards
Wind: 17 mph, into you. 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 4Par 4 · 354 yards
Wind: 17 mph, into you. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, Cart path, 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 5Par 5 · 524 yards
Wind: 12 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, Cart path, 4 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 · 388 yards
Wind: 11 mph, into you. 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 7Par 4 · 326 yards
Wind: 10 mph, into you. 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 8Par 4 · 384 yards
Wind: 11 mph, into you. 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. Into the wind, take one more club than the yardage says.
Hole 9Par 3 · 119 yards
Wind: 16 mph, into you. 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.
