There's a big emphasis on driving accuracy at Sedgefield Country Club, a short par-70 with narrow fairways.
Notably, despite a lack of overall length, only three holes are particularly short, and two of them are par 3s that are in the 175-yard range. There's also a 374-yard par 4.
But there are also two long par 3s over 220 yards and three par 4s over 480 yards.
Those long holes aren't enough for the scoring to dip, though, and the average winning scores at Sedgefield are in the 20-under range.
Golfers will need to gain greens in regulation through strong iron play (strokes gained: approach) and convert on their birdie chances.
Driving accuracy should help this week, given the narrow fairways.
