Fred Couples Says...

No. 5 (435 yards, par-4) -- If you hit a drive down the left ,it probably plays 30 yards shorter. It's a little dog-leg left. I hit a driver and an 8-iron and if I leave it out to the right, I'll have a 5- or 6-iron to a green-as everyone knows it's a big green-and you try to hit to one spot, the middle of the green. You don't try and get too cute there. You're basically trying to hit a shot away from the pin and hopefully have a birdie putt.
