The 8th is a challenging long par 4 dogleg right. The tee shot plays down a chute of trees, and players must reach the turn to have a good chance here. Reaching the turn is about 230 yards from the back cut.
The approach shot will be especially even if the player has a good look at the green, but players who don’t make the turn will have to move the ball left-to-right over a large right-side bunker.
Many may want to simply bail out short-right of the green and try for an up-and-down.
