No. 1

460 yards, Par 4

The tee shot is the most difficult feature of this starting hole. A long, carrying drive can take advantage of a fairway downslope at the 260-yard mark. If you carry to this point, the ball should run another 30 to 40 yards, leaving a short iron onto a generous green. The danger off the tee is an out of bounds to the right and trees on both sides of the fairway. A player's first shot of the day will test his driving skills and set the tone for the rest of the round.
