How to play this course
Every hazard on this nine, with the first thing to get right. Open a guide for the full plan.
- Island green Choose the club whose carry reaches the front of the green, not the flag, and allow for the wind before you lock the line. Full guide →
- River and bridge Before aiming, look at where the river meets each edge of the fairway. Full guide →
- Cart path On a long, straight links hole, aim a long club at the start of the path and let it run. Full guide →
- Split fairway Tap the course on the lane you want rather than at the flag — the aim sector then centres on that lane — and check where the roll would finish, not only the landing spot. Full guide →
- Portal Choose the club whose carry lands just short of the pad and let the ball roll on, rather than flying the full distance and relying on the pad to stop it. Full guide →
- Leaf piles From the leaves, club up: two or three clubs more than usual is a good start, and prefer a carry that finishes short of trouble to one that must clear it, because the wider spread makes long carries over water risky. Full guide →
- Trees Follow the fairway rather than the straight line to the flag when a tree sits on the corner. Full guide →
- Out of bounds Look for the white line before you lock the angle, and aim a little away from it, towards the side without stakes. Full guide →
- Gust From the tee, a long club that crosses the band mid-flight is usually unaffected. Full guide →
