The hole plays slightly uphill, and a precise tee shot is called for between bunkers bracketing the fairway. There is a bonus for the bravehearted player who can clear the left bunker. To add piquancy to the shot, a barely visible stream lies in wait! The green calls for precise shot making as it is well guarded by a large bunker and indigenous bushes. Furyk believed in tempting the golfer to opt for the aggressive line and offer the reward of an easier and shorter shot to the green. However the penalty for ambition not executed to perfection could well be damaging to the scorecard.
