Bobby Jones, 386 yards, par four
The 10th runs in the opposite direction to the ninth and demands a decision off the tee, depending on the breeze and what type of second shot you want. It's just about driveable for the very longest of hitters. The key is to get in position off the tee and then try to control your pitch to the green, as the ball skids and tends to run away from you. There's lots of humps and hollows which can take quite a good shot off line. The large green is shared with the eighth and is a big putting surface - 50 yards front to back. There is a big grandstand to the left which makes this one of the noisiest greens on the course. Bobby Jones: The legendary golfer died in 1971 and the following year the town council decided this hole should be named after him. Kruger bunker: Built during the Boer War of 1899-1902 when the British were fighting in the Transvaal, whose president was Paul Kruger. The nearby bunkers are Mrs Kruger and Kruger's mistress.
