Tee Insight:This course plays like a front-loaded birdie test on short par fours mixed with back nine grinders where long par fives force layup choices and tough par fours test iron nerve, raising bogey risks on indexed hard holes amid steeper back difficulty.You will manage repeating position plays to avoid big numbers on longer back holes.
