Hole 13 Discussion

#13, Sand Belt, is a long par 5 dominated by the environmental penalty area on the left side. If the prevailing winds are strong, they may add significant distance to the tee shot. If a player can reach the corner, it will very strongly reward the approach. Generally though, the tee shot should be fairly straight forward.

The second shot brings into play, a small section of environmental hazard that juts into the fairway. It’s important to remember here, that the player cannot legally enter this penalty area, so it cannot be ignored.

The approach has two bunkers off to the right, and bunker beyond the green. These seem to correspond to typical misses from a standard fade and draw respectively.
