TEE YARDS PAR SI
White 199 3 15
Yellow 179 3 15
Red 164 3 16

The first of the par threes at Royal Birkdale. An elevated tee allows the player to hit a high towering shot that will be able to clear the deep front bunker and land safely on the green. Although long, especially from the back tees, the green is generous and receptive with strategic bunkering being the main danger.
