A welcoming opening par 4 with a relatively open fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Bunkers guard the right side of the green, requiring accuracy on the approach shot to avoid sand.
The number one handicap hole, this lengthy par 5 demands two strong shots to reach scoring position. Water hazards and bunkers strategically placed throughout the hole reward accurate shot placement and penalize wayward drives.
A short par 4 that plays deceptively difficult despite its modest length, with a tight fairway that demands precision off the tee. The green is well-bunkered, making the approach shot the critical moment on this hole.
A brief par 3 that serves as a scoring opportunity, though the small green and surrounding bunkers demand a quality tee shot. Wind exposure and unforgiving greenside sand make club selection crucial on this one-shotter.
A mid-length par 4 that plays uphill toward the green, with the fairway tightening in the landing area. Bunkers frame the approach, and the elevated green makes distance control essential for a solid second shot.
The third-most difficult hole on the course, this par 4 features a dogleg character with hazards positioned to catch both aggressive and tentative shots. The green sits well-protected, making this a stern test of accuracy and course management.
A mid-length par 3 with a narrow, elevated green that requires a precise tee shot to find the putting surface. Bunkers and rough terrain surround the green, leaving little margin for error from the tee.
A short par 4 with an open fairway that invites aggressive play off the tee, though the approach must navigate bunkers guarding the green. The hole's brevity is offset by its penal greenside bunkering.
A solid mid-length par 4 with a straightforward layout that requires two consistent, well-struck shots. Bunkers positioned along the fairway and around the green demand careful positioning to avoid trouble.
A challenging par 4 that stretches across its length with water or out-of-bounds threatening the right side throughout. The fairway narrows in the driving zone, placing a premium on accurate tee shots.
A moderate par 4 with a fairway that doglegs slightly, requiring strategic positioning off the tee to set up the best angle to the green. Bunkers frame the green, making the approach shot a key element of the hole's difficulty.
A short par 3 that plays to an island green or well-isolated putting surface surrounded by hazards on all sides. The confined nature of the target makes this a high-risk, one-shot test despite its short yardage.
A short par 4 with a wide-open fairway that allows players to take an aggressive approach off the tee. Bunkers guard the green on the right side, and the hole's brevity makes it a birdie opportunity for solid ball-strikers.
A substantial par 5 that rewards long, accurate hitting with a scoring opportunity, though hazards throughout the hole punish errant shots. The fairway opens up initially before narrowing near the green, creating risk-reward decisions.
A challenging par 4 that plays longer than its yardage suggests, with water or out-of-bounds threatening the left or right side depending on tee selection. The narrow fairway and well-bunkered green make positioning critical.
The second-most difficult hole on the course, this substantial par 5 features strategic water and bunker placement throughout the hole. The length and hazards combine to demand near-perfect execution for a birdie opportunity.
The shortest par 3 on the course, this diminutive one-shotter belies its difficulty as the handicap 18 hole rating suggests. A small, well-protected green surrounded by bunkers makes this deceptive in its challenge.
The fourth-most difficult hole on the course, this finishing par 4 provides a dramatic conclusion with a challenging length and bunker-guarded green. The approach shot to a well-defended putting surface separates solid finishes from great ones.
