Hole 8 Discussion

This seemingly simple hole will become more difficult the further the pin is cut into its elevated green. Framed by tall live oaks just off its front left corner, it becomes narrower as it extends away from the tee. Any missing long or right shots will find the sand.

Pete Dye’s Comment: The only key here is the front part of the approach to the green is short grass. Into the wind, it’ll be an easy hole, but downwind it could be a nightmare with players having to hit it short hoping it bounces up there. The water behind the green shouldn’t come into play.
