The 2009 Open Championship:

6th hole - Tappie Toorie, 231 yards, par 3

The sixth hole is a very long par 3, which can play anything up to 240 yards to the middle of the green. It does play downwind but the green has a big slope at the front so players will need to carry that allowing the ball to release to the back of the green. Given the general slope on this green players will be happy making a par-3 on this hole.
