The 2009 Open Championship:

4th hole - Woe-Be-Tide, 166 yards, par 3

The fourth is a beautiful little par 3 which will generally play downwind. It could be very awkward with pin positions at the front, so players will not want to miss the green left, long or short. It will be all about getting a good quality strike on the ball to the front of this green, trying to get it to stop as quickly as possible to those front pins.
