Hole 10
Goose Green
263 Yards (Yellow Tees) • Par 4 • S.I. 14
The first hole of our very own ‘Amen Corner’ – and one where a little patience can go a long way.
Long hitters may be tempted to take on the green from the tee, but there’s plenty of risk, with out of bounds running along the right and trees lining both sides of the fairway. A well-placed tee shot to the left of the large tree on the right leaves a short approach to the elevated green.
Take care with the steep slope to the right, which falls away towards the River Tyne and more out of bounds. Bunkers guard the front left and right of the green, while the elevated putting surface often hides the base of the flag, making your approach distance difficult to judge.
Good positioning from the tee is the key to starting Amen Corner with a solid score.
