This fairway slopes from right to left, and the tee is pointed toward the left rough, so careful alignment is of key importance on the tee shot. The green is quite deep, deeper than it appears from the fairway. It slopes from right to left more than the fairway does. Two bunkers are located behind the green. The ninth at Tam O' Shanter is a challenging way to end the front nine.
