Slightly longer than the 9th hole, a more open view of the fairway can be seen from the tee. Again, depending on where the pin is cut, the correct line for the tee shot is a must if the golfer wants to avoid a tricky pitch into the green, especially if the pin is cut front left, then there are two bunkers to fly to a tight landing zone. In this case the best line for the tee shot is as tight to the right hand side of the fairway as the golfer can get, leaving a wide open green with a great chance of a birdie.
The opposite is true if the pin is cut front right; this brings into play the bunker at the front right of the green. This time a drive up the left hand side of the fairway is required, however watch out for the trees all the way up the left hand side - easy to score a bogey if caught up in those.
