This is a classic opening par four that provides all of the qualities found in a major championship golf course. Two tall pines guard the right, while vast bunkers penalize shots hit too far left. A missed approach shot will exercise the healthiest short game.

A 432-yard par four, dogleg left invites the player to cut the corner and head for home. A strategically placed bunker in the landing area will make even the best players think twice. Upon reaching the green you will need a sound-putting stroke to get down in two.

Dramatic is the only way to describe our fourteenth hole. At 500 yards this par five seems to be a great chance to make a birdie. A hazardous lagoon defines the entire right side of the fairway. Its alluring qualities conceal the danger as the lagoon swings in front and to the left of the putting surface. Cautious play will offer the greatest opportunity for success.
