Valhalla hole by hole: Hole 10 - Par 5 - 590 yards
The back nine starts with an eminently birdieable double-dogleg par 5, but players must avoid a bunker on the right of the driving zone - along with thick rough and trees to the left - in order to take put themselves in position for a birdie or better. A slope feeds down to the green, which will be useful for fairway wood second shots, but up and downs from over the green are hard to come by.
