Course Notes

Fairways are generous, but golfers can’t afford to miss them. This course has biggest missed fairway penalty on the PGA Tour.
Tree-lined, parklands course that features water hazards in play on 11 of the 18 holes.
Course continues to get lengthened and should provide a tough all-around test.
Greens here feature bentgrass and are both firm and undulating.
Birdies are out there if golfers hit the ball well, but big numbers are lurking.
Putting hasn’t been as important here in the past, all about strong tee-to-green play.
