The skinny:
The drive should be right center to set up a medium iron to the green. A drive near the left edge of
the fairway will be blocked out to the green by trees, which is bunkered on both sides to catch an off-line approach.
Andy North says:
This is a good par 4. It's narrow, and huge trees guard both sides of the fairway. There are times players will hit 3-woods off the tee, but it's very important to put the ball in the fairway. Medinah is a course that rewards good play, and this hole is a prime example. With two good shots, you can have a shot at a birdie. But put it in the rough and you can make bogey.
