Front NinePar 36
445
4.13
Slight dogleg right. Elevated tee to a fairway that slopes sharply left. Approach to a green that slopes front-to-back.
575
4.72
Downhill par 5 with a sharp dogleg left. Reachable in two for long hitters. Green is fronted by a deep bunker.
350
4.02
Short par 4 with a severely sloped green from back-to-front. Pin positions make this deceptively challenging.
240
3.22
Long par 3 with a two-tiered green. The longest par 3 on the course. Club selection is critical.
495
4.22
Long, slight dogleg left. Large fairway bunkers left. Approach is uphill to a green with significant slopes.
180
3.05
Severely downhill par 3 to one of the most treacherous greens. A 30-yard-deep green with a steep front-to-back slope.
450
4.18
Dogleg left with a narrow landing area. The approach must avoid the large bunker front-left of the tiny green.
570
4.78
Uphill par 5 through a chute of tall pines. The elevated green has a pronounced mound in the center, creating two distinct putting surfaces.
460
4.16
Downhill dogleg left. The approach shot to the severely sloped green is one of the most demanding on the course.
Back NinePar 36
495
4.22
Dramatic downhill dogleg left that begins the back nine. The tee shot descends nearly 100 feet. Green is fast and treacherous.
520
4.30
Start of Amen Corner. A severe dogleg left with a pond guarding the left side of the green. Larry Mize's famous chip-in happened here.
155
3.14
The heart of Amen Corner. One of the most famous holes in golf. A shallow green fronted by Rae's Creek with swirling winds that confound even the best.
510
4.70
End of Amen Corner. A sharp dogleg left that is reachable in two. Rae's Creek crosses in front of the green. Eagles and double bogeys are equally common.
440
4.13
The only hole without a bunker. The wide, contoured green has a massive ridge dividing it into two halves.
530
4.67
Reachable par 5 with a pond fronting the green. Gene Sarazen's 'Shot Heard Round the World' — a double eagle — was struck here in 1935.
170
3.06
Iconic par 3 over water. The green slopes dramatically from right to left toward the pond. Sunday pin is traditionally back-right.
440
4.14
Elevated tee to a fairway framed by the Eisenhower Tree's legacy. The green is two-tiered with a front bunker.
465
4.17
Dramatic uphill finishing hole. The tee shot must navigate twin fairway bunkers. The green is visible from the clubhouse veranda.
