Valhalla hole by hole guide: Hole 5 - Par 4 - 463 yards
The 5th hole at Valhalla is another tough par 4, particularly off the tee. A large fairway bunker on the right of the fairway is joined by three more on the left, which are dotted around the landing area. There is a premium on finding the short grass, as a nasty bunker sits to the right of the green and a closely-mown collection area to the left of the putting surface.
