The wind has hardly changed from round to round here: all eight rounds averaged 6 to 8 mph. The field's scoring still moved, from -0.46 in round 1 of 2024 to -1.97 in round 3 of 2024, so the wind was not what moved it. A windy week here would be new. Rounds 3 and 4 are played by the players who made the cut.

The hole the wind moves most

Hole 14, par 5, swings more with the wind than any other here: the simulation has it at -0.52 to par in calm air and -0.18 at 20 mph. Drag the wind to replay it.

The fairway pays at the green

On the par-4 2nd, 62% of approaches from the fairway find the green. From the rough, 21%. That 41-point gap is the largest on the course.

The wrong side

On the par-5 6th, an approach that misses right ends in bogey or worse 51% of the time (69 misses). Missing left costs 40% (55 misses). Yet 56% of missed greens go right, and the pattern held in both years.

The green that decides the round

The par-4 10th is held just 37% of the time. Hit it and bogey or worse is 10%; miss it and it is 62%.

What a tucked pin costs here

Players still find the green when the pin is tucked. What they lose is the birdie: on greens hit to a tucked pin the average first putt is 26 ft and 23% become birdies (727 greens), against 20 ft and 35% to an open pin (5,911). More on this in what a tucked pin costs.
