    ...is the hardest hole in WGT. There, I've said it.

    How the heck do you resolve the approach and putting on this hole? Every time I play it, I reach the maximum 10 shots.

    These are my course notes for that hole if they help you're welcome.

    Normal 0 false false false EN-GB ZH-CN X-NONE

    Hole Fifteen.

    The Drive – The fairway bends round to the right with an OOB road along the far edge of the bend, there’s a swathe of bunkers from 180 – 255yds (from the Master’s tees) on the inside of the bend waiting to catch the short or unwary. Don’t go long or left (OOB) don’t go short or right bunkers. So accuracy again.

    The Approach – Should be a short wedge into the green which is likely 15ft above you. The pin is right on the front edge of the green on a really nasty slope in fact it’s really a shelf that drops off right and all along the front with a wall behind and left, don’t be short or you’ll miss the green but if you DO just make it on you’ll still have a huge uphill putt, don’t be long or you’ll have a huge downhill putt, get pin high and if you miss do so slightly right, but whatever you need to be within a couple of yards to guarantee your two putt.

    it is a good one isn't it....lol

    Practice it more and try something different the next time you play it if things a going bad.

    Play the hole as much as you like in 'Wgt Community' under 'Golf Courses' and then follow the links.

    Off the Reds but you can compinsate off the tee for the proper approach shot.

    Sod the putting, hit the green let it roll back to edge, and chip it in.

    Practice that chip using top spin, and u'll nail it more often than any putt.

    left or right and ur dead

    Beth #5 is harder
