The final hole will again take the driver out of most players hands. There is a creek running through the middle of the hole, and it is mostly deep rough beyond. Any tee shot to the small fairway should take the short fairway bunker out of play. GPS may be helpful here, as the view to the fairway is semi-blind, so it may be hard to aggressively play to the edge of the hazard.
The approach isn’t trivial. With any headwinds, ending up in the right-side bunkers and deep rough short of them is a real possibility.
The back of the green runs away from the fairway, so higher or shorter shots than typical may be prudent. It’s also important to not that this green may play a bit faster than most as it has more time to dry out during the day.
OB runs right side of creek 100 yards from the green. Drive will leave a second shot of about 200 yards to the green. Two hazards are short of the green, a creek about 100 yards out and a wetlands about 40 yards.
