Tee Insight:This course delivers steady tests of iron control on a heavy diet of par fours, spiked by risky par five choices where bold plays tempt but blowups lurk. Forward play stays safe by prioritizing position over distance on the back stretch.This course plays with repeating mid-par four grind where tee mishits lead to bogey traps, and par fives force layup smarts to dodge double trouble.
