The Course, Hole by Hole
The 12th: Bracken
Par 4, 461 Yards
And there is plenty of it. But the 12th is a magnificent hole, a long downhill par 4, rated the most difficult on the Links.
Peter Andrews of “American Heritage” says that “the 12th will someday rank as one of the premier par 4s on the globe”.
Playing Tips
Heavy rough on the right, a wall to the left demanding that the tee shot be accurate. A good drive down the middle, which will tend to kick left, leaves a long iron or wood to carry you past a yawning chasm to the left to reach the plateau green.
