A large number of balls go straight from tee to bunker in this challenging par three. Players will struggle to score a birdie on this long par three. If you do manage to avoid the bunker you will find a green which is three-tiered and rises from front to centre before dropping towards the back.
Hole facts

Par: Three
Top tip: From the tee aimed to the right half of the green to avoid the large bunker on the left
Andrew Jowett, Head Professional at Gleneagles Resort, says
The safe shot is back right on a very large green with a tricky ridge running through the centre. An extra club may be needed to carry the bunker. Par is a good score on this hole, even for the pros.
