Chapter 365: Dogleg Hole

King Wen and Xiao Zhengtai, including the caddies standing around and the caddies looking for the ball, all applauded. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Whether it is King Wen or Xiao Zhengtai, they often play on this court, and those little ball boys, although they are about the same age as Xiao Zhengtai, but they will squat here almost every day during the holidays, and these little ball boys are longer in terms of the length of time on this court.

The golf course at the Royal Annex, Dahua Qiong Island, is definitely one of the top golf courses, but it is not open to the public. Just kidding, this is the dignified Dahua Royal Palace, and the people who come and go are all important people of the royal family.

However, sometimes some of the world's top golfers come to play on this beautiful golf course at the invitation of the Dahua royal family, after all, golf is still very popular among the Dahua royal family.

But even among the world's top golfers, there are only a handful of birdies on the No. 1 hole. Those little caddies can definitely testify to this.

And now, a newcomer to the game of golf, who didn't even tee off twenty minutes ago, made a birdie on the hole with a long shot and a precise second shot!

No matter how he played it, this birdie deserves a round of applause.

The Grandmaster smiled and waved at a few people around him, then bent down to take the ball out of the hole, wiped it carefully, and put it in his trouser pocket.

"Third uncle, I'll collect this ball! It's the first time I've played a full hole, so it means a lot to me. ”

His Royal Highness King Wen nodded with a smile and said, "You have to collect it, if you can become the world's top golfer one day, then this ball will be worth a lot!" ”

The Grandmaster laughed.

Xiao Zhengtai said: "Fourth uncle, which hole shall we play next?" Is it the second or sixth hole? "Xiao Zhengtai's father is the eldest of the five brothers of King Wen, and King Wen is the fourth, so Xiao Zhengtai calls King Wen the fourth uncle.

When King Wen heard this, he asked strangely: "Zhengzhe, shouldn't we play the second hole next?" How did you get another sixth? ”

Xiao Zhengtai said: "Fourth uncle, didn't I look at the tee box of the second hole and the tee area of the sixth hole nearby!" The second hole is a par 3, which is too short, while the sixth hole is a standard par 5, and I really want to see the grandmaster tee off, I like to watch the grandmaster play a long shot of more than 400 yards, so that's why I asked. Anyway, we're playing, and we're not officially playing a game, so it's not up to us to decide which hole to play? ”

King Wen smiled and nodded, touched Xiao Zhengtai's head and said, "Okay, since Zhengzhe likes to watch the master's long fights, then let's play hole No. 6 next!" ”

Xiao Zhengtai's head twisted, broke away from the touch of His Royal Highness King Wen, and said with a raised face: "Fourth uncle, you can't touch my head casually in the future!" My sister said that a man's head and a woman's waist can't be touched casually. ”

King Wen and Grandmaster laughed at the same time, and King Wen ignored Xiao Zhengtai and walked towards Hole 6 on the west side of the green of Hole 1.

The tee boxes on the second and sixth holes are not far from the green on the first hole, only a few dozen meters away, and the tee off area of the sixth hole can be reached directly through a small patch of woods separating the two fairways.

The sixth hole is also a standard par five, and although it is not as long as the 722 yards of the first hole, the second hole is 647 yards long.

And compared to the wide and straight No. 1 hole, this No. 6 hole is really not very easy to play.

Because this sixth hole is a standard "dogleg hole", which is a hole with a "U" shaped fairway.

The tee area on the sixth hole is almost side-by-side with the green to the east and west, with a small area of amber in between. The fairways on the sixth hole revolve around the lake.

To the north from the tee area is the fairway of the sixth hole, which is about 60 yards wide and extends northwest along the east shore of the lake for a distance of almost 280 yards, and then turns southwest along the west bank of the lake, and after about 280 yards, is the green of the 6th hole.

The overall shape of the sixth hole is more like a large "V", with the tee area and green at the top of the "V", separated by a lake almost 200 yards wide.

In fact, the sixth hole is designed in this way, so that some top players have a chance to take advantage of it.

Normally, the sixth hole should be played along the fairway, but some experts can attack the green directly from the tee.

After all, there is a lake about 200 yards wide between the green and the tee area. That's a distance that doesn't mean much for some of the top golfers.

It's just that it's not so easy to hit the green with one shot from the teeing area. The green area of the sixth hole is only about 500 square meters, which is almost the lowest limit of the green area, and the green is an oval shape that is long from north to south and short from east to west, and the hole is located in the middle of the green.

Around the green, except for a fairway about twenty yards wide to the northeast, the rest of the green's perimeter is surrounded by water.

In other words, if you want to hit the green directly from the tee area directly east of the green to the west, you must have a lot of control on the tee shot in addition to a lot of power, otherwise there is a great chance that the ball will roll into the lake, whether the power is greater or smaller.

After all, the widest width of this oval green is only about ten yards from east to west, and the play and control are a little worse, which will send the ball directly into the lake.

The most important thing is that when the designers designed this hole, in order to avoid directly attacking the green from the tee area, a row of tall trees was planted on the east side of the green, which artificially created a tall barrier between the tee area and the green.

So, even the best players have to hit the green directly with a high enough parabolic arc to make sure that the ball can successfully cross the 200-yard-wide lake, but also make sure that the ball is not blocked by the row of tall trees, and that the ball rolls as little distance as possible after landing!

If you want to meet these three conditions at the same time, it is really not something that ordinary people can do.

At least in the eyes of these caddies, it seems that only one player has ever hit the green with a single shot on this hole in the last two or three years.

And this player's name is Zhou Wenbo, who is currently the second top player in the world in golf points!

It's just that when Zhou Wenbo hit that shot and hit the green, it was not in an official game, but purely playing as today, and before Zhou Wenbo hit that shot, he also tried several times before finally succeeding!

But now, the big brother named Grandmaster is also ready to try to attack the green with one shot, can he really do it?
