 Ernie Els talks about the change to No. 2

Mouse over the numbers on the graphic below to see information on specific changes. (NOTE: You must have javascript enabled to see mouse overs.)


 
  The change: The second hole was lengthened 25 yards. The championship tee was moved back into woods near a service road. The fairway bunker was shifted to the right, creating a wider landing area. The hole will play 575 yards from the new tee.

  The effect: Because of the added yardage, golfers won't be able to cut the corner on the dogleg left hole as easily. In fact, they'll be hitting out of something like a chute. In addition to that, the added yardage will bring the fairway bunker back in play, especially with its new location. Tiger Woods won't be hitting 7-irons into the green for his second shot here anymore.
