Hole #9
 This is a really intriguing hole. In fact, it's so interesting it should probably be No. 18, but who's complaining?
Big smackers can go for two here on a par 5 that doesn't measure all that long from the men's white tees (496). Of course, there's also a comfortable layup area that, if hit at properly, will give you a short shot and a fabulous look at the green for your approach.
It's OK to try to hit the green in two and miss short, with plenty of navigable rough in front with no trouble other than your own psyche when trying to size up a uphill chip to a fiendishly contoured putting surface.
