Hole 6 Par 5 523 yards
Hole Guide
The 6th hole, the first of the par 5s, measures 523 yards and challenges players to hit long and straight off the tee. A wayward drive can easily turn wet on the right or sandy on the left, with the introduction of five fairway bunkers in place of the old sand trap. Any wild tee shot could see the shorter hitters struggling to reach the second-shot landing area, where blind third shots are not uncommon. The 6th is a good birdie chance, but also presents the risk of running up a high score.
