Hole Diagram

10th Hole Header Graphic

Description: Rock Run creek cuts through the trees and meanders along the left side of the fairway and the front left side of the green of this short, scenic par-4.

How Pros Play the Hole: The pros will tend to hit 3-woods or long-irons off the tee. An ideal drive will stay to the right side of the fairway to avoid the creek. From there it's just a short iron onto the green.

Most Troublesome Hazards: Rock Run on the left side of the fairway and green.

Toughest Pin Placement: Left side of the green behind Rock Run.

Fred Funk's Take: "Most guys hit 3-wood on this hole. If it's into the wind, you might hit driver. Because of the way the green is, you want to stay aggressive off the tee and get it down as far as you can to have a short shot in. Last year, you couldn't hold that green with a sand wedge. They had the pin on the very front middle on Sunday and nobody could get close. Plus, you've got that creek up there that seems to suck up a lot of balls."
