Hole Guide:

Probably the finishing hole in many people's dream 18 – although it poses probably the most difficult tee-shot at the Masters.

A tight target and two fairway bunkers at the elbow give the pros plenty to think about.

For the approach, a mid-iron is needed into a green guarded by two bunkers. If you find the fairway bunkers, think Sandy Lyle and say your prayers.

Not everyone finds this hole difficult though - John Huston recorded 2,3,4,3 here during the 1997 Masters.
