Hi - for those that may not be aware of a little tip to play Oakmont #4 with a better shot at making eagle.....
If you have any kind of wind at your back, then you can reach (well, I can with the R11S) the fairway to the far right of the screen (its also the landing zone for the drive on the 5th hole). This then opens up the green for your 2nd shot - taking the left bunker complex and the little stepping stones bunkers out of play.
Just be aware that anywhere to the right of where my aim marker is in the pic below is OB - so watch for cross winds (in both directions). I have stuffed it up when the wind was right to left, and I allowed slightly too much for the wind. If the ball lands anywhere near the right edge of your screen, thats the hole nicely toasted.....
Here's a replay of the kind of approach you should expect (mine just came in a little hot):
