“The biggest golf event ever" begins Friday! The United States' best golfers will take on the European all-stars at Bethpage’s Black Golf Course.
Bethpage Black Golf Course's director of golf has an overview of Hole #18, a very exciting finishing hole. If the matches get to this hole it's going to take a birdie on 18 to win the tournament.
However, you have to get to the green first. The fairway is only 21 feet wide, and it's surrounded by very deep, very big bunkers and fescue in between. If you hit the fairway on your first show you'll have about a 70-yard pitch shot to a green that is very elevated.
It's hard to see the green from down there and it's hard to get to the hole. However, the green is not much of a challenge. It's sloped a bit back to front. A lot of birdies will happen on this hole and the tourney just might be won on this hole.
