9. Short - Par 3 S.I. 13
A picturesque 142 yard par 3. The shortest hole on the course, by 1 yard over the 15th. This hole, however, often plays several clubs shorter than its rival due to prevailing winds. A good tee shot here needs to get close to the pin on a deceptively undulating green to remove the risk of 3 putts. Miss the green from the tee and a provisional may be required or, if not, an awkward chip shot is a near certainty.
