A straightforward opening par 4 with a fairly generous fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Bunkers guard both sides of the putting surface, requiring precision on the approach shot to avoid sand.

A relatively forgiving par 4 with a wide fairway corridor that provides room off the tee. The green sits slightly elevated with bunker protection, making this an approachable hole that rewards solid striking.

A short par 3 requiring an accurate mid-to-short iron to a well-bunkered green. The compact nature of the hole makes directness essential, as the bunkers frame the putting surface closely.

The course's most difficult hole, a formidable par 4 that plays long and demands two quality shots. Hazards threaten both sides of the fairway, and the green is heavily guarded, making this a stern test of accuracy.

A short par 4 that rewards precision over distance, with a tight fairway and strategic bunkering near the green. The modest length belies the hole's difficulty, as placement is paramount for a clear approach.

A sweeping par 5 that provides multiple options for reaching the green in regulation. The fairway offers width for positioning, though bunkers guard the approach zones and frame the final shots to the putting surface.

A challenging par 4 with a defined dogleg or narrowing fairway that demands control off the tee. Strategic bunkering along the approach corridor forces players to shape their shots carefully toward a well-protected green.

The hardest par 4 on the course, a dramatic hole that requires two exceptional shots to succeed. Hazards frame the fairway tightly, and the green presents a small, well-defended target that punishes imprecision.

A mid-length par 3 with a demanding tee shot to a green guarded by bunkers and potentially water. The exposed green site and hazard placement make accuracy off the tee critical for securing par.

A long par 5 that plays as a genuine three-shotter for most players, with strategic bunkering shaping the approach zones. The expansive layout offers multiple routing options, though hazards reward disciplined positioning.

A short and deceptive par 3 where precision matters more than distance. Small greens and surrounding bunkers demand a cleanly struck tee shot despite the modest yardage.

A mid-length par 4 with a relatively open fairway that narrows near the green. Bunkers frame the approach, and the putting surface requires a well-executed second shot to find the center.

A short par 4 that emphasizes accuracy and strategy over raw power. The tight fairway and closely-guarded green make this a precision hole where placement trumps distance.

The second-most difficult hole, a formidable par 4 with sustained length and multiple hazards threatening both sides of the fairway. The approach to the green is particularly demanding, with bunkers and water guarding the putting surface.

A mid-length par 4 with a fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the green. Strategic bunkering near the landing zone and around the green creates a test of controlled distance and accuracy.

A compact par 4 with bunker-lined fairways and a green surrounded by sand. The hole's short overall length is offset by the tight corridors and hazards that demand precise striking throughout.

A tiny par 3 that serves as a dramatic finishing prelude, with minimal fairway and strategic bunkers framing a small green. Despite its brevity, the exposed nature of the hole and hazard placement create genuine peril.

A majestic closing par 5 that provides a fitting conclusion to the round, with ample fairway width for positioning but bunkers guarding the approach zones and green. The long finish allows for strategic play and offers multiple ways to reach the final putting surface.
