No verified cards were posted for this day.

Hole by hole

Hole 1Par 4 · 356 yards

Wind: 6 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: A gust band, 2 bunkers, 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 2Par 4 · 409 yards

Wind: 9 mph, left to right. On the hole: 2 bunkers.

Fairway first. Rough keeps only 84% of your distance and stops the ball dead, so a shorter, straighter tee shot often finishes further up.

Hole 3Par 3 · 140 yards

Wind: 7 mph, into you. 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.

Hole 4Par 3 · 200 yards

Wind: 9 mph, into you. On the hole: A gust band, 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.

Hole 5Par 4 · 363 yards

Wind: 8 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.

Hole 6Par 4 · 426 yards

Wind: 7 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: The arm, Water, Lava pool, 1 bunker.

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 7 · 1066 yards

Wind: 13 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, A gust band, Water, 6 bunkers, 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. Allow for the wind pushing the ball right.

Hole 8Par 4 · 347 yards

Wind: 10 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Lava pool, 1 bunker.

Water guards this hole. Laying up short costs a few yards; finding it costs a stroke and a drop.

Hole 9Par 4 · 368 yards

Wind: 7 mph, against, left to right. On the hole: Portal green, The arm, 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.
