Pro's Tips
Although the open parkland on this part of the course gives a feeling of space, four well-placed fairway bunkers await longer hitters, so driving accuracy is important.
Very long hitters can clear the two left-side bunkers with a well struck Driver, but most players opt to lay up in the space at the corner of the dog-leg, short of the furthest three bunkers, leaving themselves a longer approach shot.
The green is well guarded, with out of bounds to the right, and the pin is often tucked to the left. The front, left-side, bunker is particularly deep and tough to get out of, so aiming for the centre of the green is advisable.
