A straightforward par 4 that plays relatively short and opens with a welcoming fairway. The approach tightens slightly into the green, where a pair of bunkers flanks the right side to catch wayward approaches.
A short par 4 that offers an opportunity for aggressive play off the tee. The fairway narrows considerably on the approach, and a hazard left of the green demands precision on the second shot.
The course's first par 5 presents a genuine three-shot hole with a slight dogleg that opens up scoring opportunities. Water guards the left side throughout, making positioning off the tee critical for a clear angle to the green.
A short par 3 with a straightforward green complex and minimal trouble. This hole offers a chance to build momentum before the back stretch.
A mid-length par 4 that plays relatively direct with a fairway that maintains its width through the landing zone. Bunkers positioned right of the green can catch approaches that drift offline.
A solid par 4 that demands accuracy more than length, with hazards close to the green on both sides. The fairway provides ample room off the tee, but the approach shot into a tightened landing area is the key challenge.
The course's most difficult hole plays as a demanding par 4 with a slight dogleg right that requires careful positioning. Out-of-bounds lurks along the right, while bunkers and water left create a challenging approach to a well-bunkered green.
A short, forgiving par 3 that provides a welcome breather and a scoring opportunity. The green is relatively open with minimal surrounding hazards.
A well-balanced par 4 that plays shorter than its yardage suggests due to favorable topography. Water or a hazard right of the green protects the scoring area and requires a disciplined approach shot.
A medium par 4 with a fairway that widens at the landing zone, offering multiple routes off the tee. Bunkers around the green complex make the final approach the defining challenge.
A lengthy par 4 that stands as one of the course's most demanding holes, requiring two solid shots to reach the green in regulation. Fairway bunkers and hazards on both sides narrow the playable corridor and penalize errant tee shots.
The second-most difficult hole on the course, this long par 4 is an uphill battle from tee to green. Bunkers strategically placed throughout require precise positioning, and the green sits elevated and well-guarded.
A mid-length par 3 with a well-protected green surrounded by bunkers and hazards. The hole's difficulty lies in the accuracy required to find the narrow landing area.
A dramatic par 5 with a slight dogleg that offers birdie potential for long hitters but demands respect from all players. Water and bunkers frame both sides of the fairway, particularly around the bend, creating an engaging risk-reward decision.
A strong par 4 that plays longer than its yardage due to an uphill grade throughout the hole. Bunkers left and right of the green create a narrow target, and the elevated green makes approach shots particularly challenging.
A mid-length par 4 with a straightforward layout but subtle complexity in its undulating fairway and green. Bunkers positioned right of the landing zone encourage play left, though water or hazards may protect that side as well.
A well-proportioned par 4 that balances length with playability, featuring a fairway that holds its width through the approach zone. Hazards frame the green on at least one side, making the second shot the critical test.
A finishing par 3 of moderate length that provides a fitting conclusion to the round with its scenic setting and challenging green complex. Bunkers and water surrounding the green demand a precise tee shot to end the day successfully.
