Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 426 yards
Wind: 11 mph, helping. On the hole: Portal green, Cart path, 3 bunkers.

Hole 2Par 5 · 504 yards
Wind: 10 mph, helping. On the hole: Portal green, Cart path, 1 bunker.

Hole 3Par 3 · 146 yards
Wind: 10 mph, helping, 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.

Wind: 15 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, A gust band, Cart path, 4 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. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 5Par 4 · 333 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping, left to right. On the hole: 1 bunker.
Fairway first. Rough keeps only 84% of your distance and stops the ball dead, so a shorter, straighter tee shot often finishes further up. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
