Ryder Cup Course 2014

Hole 9 – “Crook O’Moss” – Par 5 – 564 Yards

A risk-reward par-5, where players will probably assess the state of their match before deciding how aggressive to be here. If the bunkers are avoided off the tee, the green is in reach in 2, but water and a bunker right of the green will penalise any poorly struck approach. Players laying up will do so to a full yardage, as more bunkers are positioned 60 yards out from the green.
