The approach to this par-four can be very challenging with bunkers guarding both sides of the green and any shot in must factor a pronounced slope on the green from left to right. The sensible play into a large, receptive green is to lay up. The ideal route from the tee on this dog-leg left is to flirt with the treeline on the left with a slight draw and avoid the treacherous rough on the right.
Bunkers guard both sides of the green at the front and any approach needs to be bold for centre.
The first hole to follow the scenic line of Stillwater Cove, the fourth is deceptively beautiful. From the tee, a three wood to just right of centre is a good option, but beware the treacherous slope towards the bay to the right of the fairway. The safest route in is just left of centre from where the ball generally works its way to the right on the green. This monster par-five is one of the definitive holes at Pebble Beach. The shortest hole on the course, the picturesque seventh can be truly treacherous.
