A good warm-up hole that allows golfers to get an early feel of the course. This downhill hole which doglegs to the left should not pose too much of a problem. Fairway bunkers on the left traps the wayward shots. The medium sized green is guarded bunkers on the right and left. Choice of the club for the approach shot is important because beyond the green is the lake.

For the short hitters, this may be a nerve-wrecking hole (Index 1) with lots of water to negotiate though the fairway is generous. The tee-shot has to clear some 80 yards of water after which another stretch of water awaits hungrily in front of the green which slopes from back to front. Not easy to make this one in two shots, though the big hitters may pull it off

The green is shaped in a unique figure eight. A fairway bunker lies on the left at 200 yards from the tee-box while two bunkers guard the green. Clubbing must be correct for the approach shot as a large pond resides at the back of the green.
