What is the Firestone Country Club Course like?

Players need accuracy rather than power to succeed at hole #1, a par 4. The green slopes to the front-left; there is a deep bunker to the left and a large, but shallow bunker on the right side. At the end of the course, the 18th hole has a tight tee shot down a hill. It will test the true leaders. There is a tree fronting the left side of the green. A back pin position makes this hole more difficult.
