The Course
Across the holes we have mapped, the fairway measures a median 29 yards wide where a tee shot lands, and pinches to 25 at its narrowest. Ten of the 18 holes bend more than 18 yards off the straight line, and they nearly all turn right. The map carries 76 bunkers. Water crosses the line of play on the 6th, 8th, 9th and 12th.
With water across the line of play on ten holes, the gap between the right club and the obvious one is at its widest. Yards simulates each of those tee shots for your handicap and your own carry distances, then names the target that loses fewest strokes. Holes 1 and 2 are open to anyone, which here means a 378-yard par 4 and a 356-yard par 4.
