Justin Rose's impressive challenge came to an end on the 17th last year, where trees right and left call for an erring drive. The famous Eisenhower Tree stands 210 yards from the tee, on the left edge of the fairway. Legend has it that the former President and Augusta National member hit the tree so often that he campaigned to have it removed.
Once you get past the tree, there are two small bunkers to negotiate at the front of this relatively simple green.
