A drive down the left-center to the crest of the fairway will set up a second shot to a green set down into the dunes. Players are faced with a large sand area to the left front of the green and a deeper, steep faced sand area to the back.

Pete Dye’s Comment: This tee is elevated atop a sand dune for a panorama of the back nine. The driving area is very liberal with the fairway rolling right into the ground-level green. Pro players can hit driver and short irons to birdie it. It’s very comparable, but in the reverse direction, to No. 1.
