Men's Tees
Tee Insight:This course plays as a steady test of par four management where approach misses easily lead to bogeys, while par fives tempt aggressive plays but carry double risk on highly ranked tough holes. Front nine demands extra focus to counter its steeper challenge before back nine eases slightly.
