Hole 2 is the most challenging hole by stroke index. Many may be surprised as this isn't an especially long hole. The focus here is on the dogleg combine with a water hazard, making the tee shot especially difficult.
The tee shot will need to get past the corner to have a clear shot to the green. There is out-of-bounds, however, all along the right side, along the corner. The will make trying to cut the corner extremely dangerous.
Important distances are:
Minimum yards to round the corner:
Black: 185 to center of fairway, 225 to cut the corner.
Gold: 175 to center of fairway, 200 to cut the corner.
Yards to water hazard:
Black: 250
Gold: 230
The approach can be extremely challenging if the tee shot is less than perfect. Most will have an approach of at least 200+ yards, and even the best tee shots will typically be > 150 yards. The only consolation is that the green is very welcoming to shots that run up.
