Hole 9 Discussion

A wide fairway sloping down from the right makes driving length more important than direction. The putting surface is open in the front but presents plenty of tough up-and-down chances from an assortment of grassy swale and deep sand areas both left and right.

Pete Dye’s Comment: The big deal on this hole is that the green is a little bit offset, so the ball has to be turning right to left on the second shot or you’ll have to carry it to the green. Downwind it’ll be a driver, 7-iron, but into the wind it could be a driver, long iron.
