The
view from the tee is dramatic: the player is 8 metres higher
than the green, with a complete view of the six bunkers that
encroach right up to the green surface
itself. Though large, this green is difficult to putt, with an
upper tier at the back that falls towards the front and right.
The target area therefore is small. The green has the potential
for some diabolical pin placements for championship play.
The 6th green is large for a par 3 hole, but
in some pin positions the target area is restricted if you want
to leave yourself with an uphill
putt. Here, Christy O’Connor surveys the putting surface
as Sandy Lyle looks on. Tee distance are in RED
