2008 Rankings
Most Difficult Hole
The par-4 479-yard 9th This long par 4 is brutal from the back tee. With a creek all the way up the left side, players must be careful off the tee. Most players will be very happy with a two-putt par from long distance.
2008: 1 eagles, 24 birdies, 258 pars, 124 bogeys, 26 double bogeys, 3 others.
Easiest hole
The par-5 523-yard 2nd A "green light special," this reachable-in-two par 5 will yield a ton of birdies. The wide landing area off the tee allows players to be very aggressive, and many players will hit irons into the green for their second shot. An eagle 3 is not out of the question.
2008: 16 eagles, 213 birdies, 179 pars, 21 bogeys, 5 double bogeys and 2 others.
