“Nice risk reward par-5. There are bunkers down the left which need to be avoided – hit it in there and you are bringing bogey into play. Therefore, players bail out into the rough on the right, which could mean the green isn’t reachable if it is into the wind, but if downwind you can still get to the green.  The second shot is somewhat blind for most of the field, but it is downhill so you can pitch it short and run it on.  It is an exceptionally undulating green, which falls away to the back left. Whist hitting the green in two is easier said than done, we have seen plenty of eagles over the years. There are plenty of options of getting up and down, but you don’t want to be short left if the pin is left or short right if the pin is on the right,” – Padraig  Harrington
