Players Championship: Explore TPC Sawgrass’ difficult 4 holes

Ponte Vedra Beach, the stadium course at TPC Sawgrass in Florida, the most famous for two things: Players championship and par-3 17th hole.

One is one of the most famous short holes in the world of 137 yard Par-3, perhaps in the 12th pit in August 12.

But every golf fan knows how the 17th and water is green.

Instead of exploring the nuances of the 17th pit, we decided to go to the nature of the TPC, the character of several people, in a different direction.

We have analyzed the most difficult holes from the 2024 player championships won by Scottie Scheffler. Who plays the best in this stretching hole, will probably have a good chance for victory in Sunday afternoon.

4. The hole 5 – 4, 469 yards

It changes the whole way on the right side of this wild par-4.

A dogleg right, Fairway is twisted and rotated as a snake, despite the relatively generous landing area. He said tee’s ideal stroke form is a pale.

While a long sand trap and water stretching the water on the right, while sitting on the left side of the other two bunkers exhibitions. If any pushing tee stroke will find the trap or goes further, it will find a penalty area. 320 yard carriers are required to clear this problem.

Keith Mitchell, without distance to carry this and found the water frustrated 5th two seasons earlier.

Again, the players must prefer the right half of the exhibition because they provide a better angle.

The field will use long-medium irons for second footage in a well-protected green complex with wastes bunkers, mounds and palm trees.

Green is the slopes back in the first place, but there are a few runs like the back right.

Another run-on slopes against the deep bunker who is sitting and should have a long and left.

In general, in 2024, the 5th hole 67 bogies and 14 pairs of bogies or worse, the 5th hole gave 62 birds. Who will be satisfied if he moves away in this hole.

The most difficult par-3 in TPC Sawgrass requires 8th hole, some players a long iron hit, and some will be very inclined, a narrow green tree.

The length itself is a difficulty, but it also has nine bunkers scattered on the surface of scattering.

Two kidney-shaped trap sits in the front of the green, a left and one right. After green, the slope from these two bunkers, funnel to the middle of the green. Sometimes players who hit the nearby tee shooting will see a lucky leap for tee images, slope and hole.

However, most of them will trap, take a hard and downward drive.

Unfortunately, the 8th hole refused only 53 birds a year ago. 93 Bogi and seven pairs or worse, 3,125, which played a general average, made it a third most difficult hole.

You cannot go to the left in Par-4 18, which explains the finishing hole in TPC Sawgrass in 2024.

He played 0,253 strokes and saw the players won 92 bogies. Twenty-eight double bogies or worse, first of all, it was noted due to the great lake where he shaken around this doglegin.

Ideal stroke form Is a lottery of the teeBut the players are unable to close it for open reasons. But if no draws are not fulfilled and tee shooting, trees, thick rough, audience mounds and a weak angle. Perhaps no tee never pulled in the world, it shows the brightness of Pete paint like this. The right to warrant is not a good choice, but the many players are so much.

The trees in the 281 yard of sitting in these trees and many players held real estate over the years. Anyone who has tee shots will face a difficult situation, which ends there, often results in a swamp or worse.

Like Tee Shot, the approach calls for accuracy. Lake, you can’t go to the left because the road to the surface of the road.

A bunker also sits in the green and left, and it does not necessarily have the way.

However, it is not an option to get right right.

Green, Mounds and the Waste Bunker sat short and sat right from about 60 meters. Any player who was shot on Tee’s trees, then these ‘Gumdrop’ forms will be forced to solve their views.

They only cause awkward lie and frustration.

Thus, this is the two-tier green, first of all, which is back-to-the-opposite slopes. Green in doing this is gently reduced to the water.

18 can be difficult, but it is a bright finish hole.

Players should find the Fairway out of the Tee if they wait for at least one PAR on 14.

Gnarly sits on the right side of the rough and wide mounds exhibition, and a long skinny sand trap flows to the left of the entire length of the hole. The water sits outside the bunker and will aggravate any tee stroke.

Taking this into account, the landing field itself is reasonably wide.

Again, the players should find the exhibition from Tee, the second shot does not get anything.

The same sand trap stretches to green by capturing any drawn approach. Anyone who finds this is waiting for a difficulty waiting.

The other five pots bunkers and sand traps are scattered on the surface that puts the slopes to the right-left to the Atlantic Ocean. There are many inappropriate and slopes in the front of the green. Any stroke is a short collection area, even a difficult place to shine.

Last year, 14th, TPC Sawgrass rejected a total of 33 birds, ranked as the most difficult hole. Meanwhile, 99 Bogi does not include the most and 22 pairs of bogies or worse in any hole.
