COMPETITION SCHEDULED

This hole plays differently depending on wind strength—into a strong Siberian-style wind, it becomes a back‑breaking challenge. Mounds in front of the green demand extra club. Safest line: the right side, which if missed may still leave a reasonable up‑and‑down—even from what the club refers to paste‑to‑stone “Valley of Sin”.
