Hole Guide:

The first of three fantastically difficult holes that the public rarely gets to watch on TV. The green has a deep and treacherous trap front right and a more modest bunker on its left. Club decision is critical because there is a notorious swirling wind and the putting surface is an unforgiving runaway for incoming traffic, sloping towards to the front.

With the extra distance the hole becomes extremely tricky to birdie as height is needed for the ball to have half a chance of stopping.
