A relatively straightforward opening par 4 with a fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Strategic bunkering on the right side of the landing area and around the green requires precision on the approach shot.

A short par 3 featuring a modest green complex with minimal hazard interference. The hole's brevity makes it accessible, though accurate placement is needed to avoid missing the small target.

A long par 5 that offers genuine birdie potential for strong players willing to take on distance. The fairway is relatively open off the tee, but the approach to the green will demand careful execution on what appears to be the easiest hole on the card.

A mid-length par 4 with a fairway that offers reasonable width for the tee shot. Hazards tighten near the green, where accuracy becomes critical to avoid trouble on the approach.
