The Tiger Tee on the 16th hole makes a long, scary par-3 even more long and scary.

The site of the Match 2 doubles as Tiger Woods’ home base, the place where he goes to hone his game as a member of Medalist Golf Club. Over the years, Tiger worked with the course to make some subtle additions, designed for tour players and lower handicaps, that help mirror the kinds of layouts the pros face on tour. Enter the “Tiger tees,” which saw the lengthening of eight holes. The new, maxed-out layout added 329 yards to the course and even got its own scorecard:
1. 1st hole
The Tiger tee on the opening hole requires a whopping 280-plus-yard carry on your first drive of the day.
2. 2nd hole
Another forced carry made longer by the Tiger tees, with the landing area flanked with bunkers and trees.
3. 9th hole
Pros walk off the 8th green and straight on to another Tiger tee with another daunting forced carry.
4. 10th hole
The first Tiger tee of the back nine adds a little spice to a risk-reward par 4.
6. 15th hole
The Tiger tee on this hole is near the previous green.
7. 16th hole
This Tiger tee brings even more water into play on an hole that features lots of it already.
8. 18th hole
The final Tiger tee of the round comes on the closing hole, and appears so far back it’s easy to miss from this view.
