Hole No. 1 – Tea Olive

Par: 4

Yards: 445

Bunkers: 2

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.24

The hole goes uphill and features a dogleg to the right, where a sand bunker is waiting if hit too far. Trees line the fairways here and there is no water hazard for golfers to worry about. In 2007, the event saw a 4.4 shot attempt average on Tea Olive, the worst in history. 

Hole No. 2 – Pink Dogwood

Par: 5

Yards: 575

Bunkers: 3

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.78

Golfers destroyed Pink Dogwood in 2020, with a low average of just 4.4 shot attempts. The green is reachable in two shots for golfers that favor dogleg lefts. Precision is needed to reach the green however, as it is guarded by two of the hole’s three deep sand bunkers.

Hole No. 3 – Flowering Peach

Par: 4

Yards: 350

Bunkers: 5

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.08

Flowering Peach is a short par 4 but becomes tricky with four of the five bunkers lumped together in the middle of the hole. Golfers must decide how to approach the fairway here, while the putting green begs golfers to land right. If not, the ball will fall downhill into the waiting fifth bunker positioned on the left side of the green. 

Hole No. 4 – Flowering Crab Apple

Par: 3

Yards: 240

Bunkers: 2

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 3.28

The course’s first par 3 comes at Flowering Crab Apple, featuring two bunkers guarding the front of the green. The green itself slopes from the back to the front, so hitting the back lip of the green is ideal here. Windy conditions make this hole very difficult. 

Hole No. 5 – Magnolia

Par: 4

Yards: 495

Bunkers: 3

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.26

Magnolia is a very difficult hole, starting off with an uphill battle for golfers that also has a dogleg left. Because of this, it’s difficult to see the two bunkers looming mid-fairway. Clearing the bunkers requires a carry of at least 315 yards, and then the green isn’t any easier. 

Because the green slopes back to front, golfers are eager to avoid the front of the green. However, the third bunker is settled behind the green so hitting the ball too far will result in worse results than a ball rolling off the green. 

Hole No. 6 – Juniper

Par: 3

Yards: 180

Bunkers: 1

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 3.14

Juniper seems simple, a par 3 with one bunker. For the most part it is, but the putting green has no defined slope. It’s topsy-turvy, with levels going up and down all over the surface. Pin position is important on this hole, along with avoiding the big bunker settled in front of the green. 

Hole No. 7 – Pampas

Par: 4

Yards: 450

Bunkers: 5

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.16

There are five total bunkers on Pampas, all surrounding the green. Three of the bunkers are positioned in front of the green, while two are settled on the back. Approach shots become very important here, as missing the green could result in damage. The fairway is quite simple, but very narrow. 

Hole No. 8 – Yellow Jasmine

Par: 5

Yards: 570

Bunkers: 1

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.82

Although there is only one bunker on Yellow Jasmine, the design is quite difficult from a landscaping perspective. The tee shot is a difficult uphill battle in which golfers who veer even slightly right will hit the one and only bunker. It requires an early narrow and accurate shot to the left. 

Then the green is tucked away behind multiple hills and trees, which will have the same negative impact on golfers as a sand bunker should they land anywhere near there. The mounds and trees are predominantly on the left side, so the strategy here is typically tee off aiming left then land on the green aiming right. 

Hole No. 9 – Carolina Cherry

Par: 4

Yards: 460

Bunkers: 2

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.14

This hole isn’t too difficult compared to others on the front nine, only two bunkers both lined up on the left side of the green. The green slopes from back to front, so aiming right of the green should be the thought process for avoiding those two bunkers. 

Hole No. 10 – Camellia

Par: 4

Yards: 495

Bunkers: 2

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.30

Golfers manhandled the No. 10 hole in 2018, shooting a historically low 4.08 shot attempt average. The hole features a downhill shot on the fairway with one bunker that isn’t too much of a challenge to avoid. It’s quite massive however, and overconfidence can cost golfers here. It is traditionally the most difficult hole at Augusta. 

Hole No. 11 – White Dogwood

Par: 4

Yards: 520

Bunkers: 1

Water Hazard: 2

Shot Attempt Average: 4.30

At the very north part of the course lies White Dogwood, a 500-yard plus par 4. This is the first hole that features water hazards as well, two to be exact. If golfers try to hit the back of the green, there lies a massive creek, with a small pond located just left of the green. 

Oh yeah, and the hole’s only bunker is positioned on the right side of the green. This hole begins ‘Amen’s Corner’ – three back-to-back-to-back holes in Augusta that is considered the most hallowed place in all of golf. 

Hole No. 12 – Golden Bell

Par: 3

Yards: 155

Bunkers: 3

Water Hazard: 1

Shot Attempt Average: 3.27

Another difficult hole riddled with water, Golden Bell is the second hole of ‘Amen’s Corner’. There is only one water hazard, but it’s a big one – a massively wide creek (Rae’s Creek) in front of the green. 

If that wasn’t difficult enough, there are three sand bunkers surrounding the green with one in front and two in the back. Varying wind conditions can confuse club types for golfers, an imperative decision with precision to the green so crucial. 

Hole No. 13 – Azalea

Par: 5

Yards: 545

Bunkers: 4

Water Hazard: 2

Shot Attempt Average: 4.77

The water hazards aren’t too difficult here, one in front of the tee box and the other a narrow stream (Rae’s Creek tributary) lined along the left side of the hole before crossing in front of the green. The green is makeable in two shots, with a sweeping dogleg left, but the real danger lies behind the green with four total bunkers. 

Hole No. 14 – Chinese Fir

Par: 4

Yards: 440

Bunkers: None

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.17

Although there are no bunkers or water hazards for golfers to avoid, the green is very difficult here. It slopes from left to right, but it is a very big slope. This is the only hole at Augusta without a bunker. 

Hole No. 15 – Firethorn

Par: 5

Yards: 550

Bunkers: 1

Water Hazard: 2

Shot Attempt Average: 4.77

The green at Firethorn is reachable in two shots if wind conditions are right, but the green is surrounded with water hazards and a bunker. Golfers who aim for the back-left of the green typically do well in avoiding water or sand here. The back-right is ill-advised with water and trees in the way. This has the potential to be an easy hole with the right conditions, until it’s time to find the green. 

Hole No. 16 – Redbud

Par: 3

Yards: 170

Bunkers: 3

Water Hazard: 1

Shot Attempt Average: 3.14

Redbud is a famous hole with one extremely large pond stretching from the tee box to the green. In a sense, the fairway is the water. A precise tee shot is needed to set up a potential birdie attempt, as three bunkers surround the green all over. The green slope isn’t too difficult from right to left. 

Hole No. 17 – Nandina

Par: 4

Yards: 440

Bunkers: 2

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.16

Finding the middle of the green is key at Nandina, as the surface slopes in various directions but has levelness in the middle. This is a pretty simple and open hole for the most part, with the only real threat being the various slopes on the putting green. Avoiding the front of the green would be advised, as hitting it might result in balls rolling into the only two bunkers. 

Hole No. 18 – Holly

Par: 4

Yards: 465

Bunkers: 4

Water Hazard: None

Shot Attempt Average: 4.23

This is a difficult hole to end on, with a challenging uphill dogleg right with two waiting bunkers on the left side of the fairway. The green slope isn’t too much of a challenge, but it’s very narrow and guarded by the remaining two bunkers.
