A straightforward opening par 4 with a relatively wide fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Bunkers protect the right side of the green, requiring accuracy on the approach shot to a well-bunkered target.
A birdie opportunity par 5 that plays relatively straight with a generous landing area off the tee. The fairway opens up for the approach, though strategic bunkering near the green rewards precision over pure distance.
A short par 4 that appears deceptively simple but features subtle undulations throughout the fairway and green complex. Accuracy trumps distance on this hole, where the tight green demands a precise approach.
A short par 3 with an open green offering multiple angles of approach and minimal hazard interference. The main challenge lies in the green's depth and the varying wind effects typical of this exposed position.
A demanding par 4 that ranks among the course's most difficult holes, with potential trouble flanking both sides of the fairway. The green sits elevated and well-defended, making this a true test of both distance and accuracy.
The course's signature par 5 and most difficult hole, stretching across the landscape with strategic bunkering at key intervals. Water hazards threaten the aggressive line, while the large green rewards those who can navigate the multiple landing zones.
A short par 4 that presents a risk-reward scenario off the tee, with the fairway tightening considerably near the green. Bunkers positioned strategically force an accurate approach to a compact green.
A picturesque par 3 playing over hazardous terrain to a well-bunkered green complex. The hole's length varies significantly by tee, but the character remains the same—a precision shot over trouble to a protected target.
A mid-length par 4 that doglegs gently through a tree-lined corridor with bunkers at the bend point. The green is relatively open but demanding due to the narrowing approach corridor and elevated position.
A solid par 4 that requires two well-struck shots to reach a defended green sitting in a natural amphitheater. The fairway slopes subtly, and bunkers on both sides of the green demand a straight approach.
A premier par 5 ranking among the course's most challenging holes, with a fairway that narrows progressively downrange. Water hazards and bunkers guard both sides of the expansive green, offering multiple routes for aggressive and conservative players.
A short par 4 tucked into a tighter section of the course with limited room for error off the tee. The green sits slightly elevated with bunkers protecting the front and flanks, rewarding precision over power.
A deceptively short par 3 with significant length variance by tee and an island-like green surrounded by hazards. Accurate distance control is essential, as the small target offers little forgiveness for misplaced shots.
One of the course's most punishing holes, a long par 4 that demands power and precision in equal measure. Out-of-bounds or severe penalties lurk on both sides, with additional greenside bunkers penalizing any wavering approach.
The course's longest and most difficult hole, a dramatic par 5 that tests every aspect of a golfer's game across its expansive length. Strategic hazards reward planned aggression, while the massive green offers sanctuary for those who can navigate the gauntlet.
A compact par 4 that plays shorter than its card suggests but demands exacting shot placement in a confined space. Bunkers tightly frame both sides of the fairway and green, leaving little margin for wayward shots.
A short but stern par 3 featuring a small, well-fortified green with hazards threatening the approach from multiple angles. The hole's diminutive size contrasts sharply with its defensive nature, making club selection and execution paramount.
A fitting closer, a moderate par 4 that presents a final test of accuracy and composure with hazards bookending the fairway corridor. The green's complexity and strategic bunkering create a memorable finishing hole that asks for one final quality shot.
