9th Hole
Par 4 440408349311268
yards
Baxter Spann,
Golf Course Architect: "Purely by measured yardage, this
is the second longest par four on the front nine, but it will often play
as the longest. Usually into the prevailing wind, it also requires a 220-plus
carry from the back tee to reach the fairway. The tee shot that flirts
with the arroyo on the left has a better view and angle of approach on
the second shot. Tee shots played to the right will either be in a fairway
hollow with a partially blind shot to the green or in a massive bunker
complex which the fairway bends around to the right. The green is narrow
in front and wide in back, where it is divided by a slight ridge which
protrudes into the back center of the putting surface. The green is surrounded
by a complex of bunkers and mowed chipping areas."
