Saltmarsh Links, hole 5
Par 4, 342 yards from the daily tee (389 from the back tee). It’s one of the daily holes on Daily 9, the free daily 9 hole golf game: Saltmarsh Links is inspired by a real-world layout (South Wales coast, UK).
How to play it
- A dogleg right: favour the left side off the tee to open up the approach.
- Watch for a carry over water from the tee and water down the right of the fairway and water down the left of the fairway and water crossing the fairway, so pick a lay-up yardage.
- 1 fairway bunker on the left of the landing area: play short of it or take enough club to carry it.
- 2 greenside bunkers, so a miss on the wrong side leaves a tricky up and down.
- The green falls from left to right (about 1.2%): putts break right.
