This hole is a wide open par 4 of 410 yards where you can hit your drive as boldly as you choose, but watch out for the mounds on either side of the short grass. You don't want to have to play your approach to this well-elevated green from an awkward stance. Your mid-iron approach must clear water and avoid a trap hedging the front left. Plenty of swales and rolls will make your final part of the day some of the most interesting. This isn't the hardest hole on the course, but it's a fair way to finish.
