Shinnecock Hills Hole By Hole Guide: Hole 13
Hole 13: Par-4: 374 yards
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 |
The shortest par-4 on the course offers a birdie opportunity, however, a wayward tee-shot can cost you. At 300-yards, the fairway narrows down to 16 yards across, and right next to that is a massive bunker.
The approach is tricky if not given enough attention too, with green-side bunkers and plenty of tough pin placements to navigate.
You will take a birdie here, but a par is not a bad score.
