The longest hole on the course is a very different proposition from the championship tee, where the angle is less advantageous, and that’s quite apart from the 50 yards that are added. On this stunning, much-photographed par 5, the desired tee is a draw around the corner of the woods, chasing down towards the cross bunkers.

Miss the fairway and a lay-up is inevitable because you will be unable to carry said cross-bunkers with your second shot. The large green is angled towards the fairway and a wood or long iron struck towards its centre is always a truly rewarding experience.
