__HOLE 11Par 3 | Yards 173__The shortest hole at Southern Hills demands the greatest precision, for the small green issurrounded by four bunkersand slopes from back to front. The combination of an elevated tee and the prevailing right-to-left wind makes this a challenge.__HOLE 11Par 3 | Yards 173__The shortest hole at Southern Hills demands the greatest precision, for the small green issurrounded by four bunkersand slopes from back to front.

__HOLE 12Par 4 | Yards 458__The slight dogleg left requires a tee shot to a blind landing area to take advantage of the right-to-left slope in the fairway. The approach has to carry a stream infront and to the right of the green, with bunkers to the left.__HOLE 12Par 4 | Yards 458__The slight dogleg left requires a tee shot to a blind landing area to take advantage of the right-to-left slope in the fairway.

__HOLE 13Par 5 | Yards 537__Played as a par 4 in the '94 PGA Championship. A big tee shot on this slight dogleg to the left will give players a chance to reach the green, but the shot is partially blind to a small green that is guarded by two ponds on either side.__HOLE 13Par 5 | Yards 537__Played as a par 4 in the '94 PGA Championship.

__HOLE 14Par 3 | Yards 223__Similar in direction to No. 8, with a prevailing right-to-left wind, and trees on the left that could help keep errant shots from going out-of-bounds. The green is guarded by six bunkers to the right and left.__HOLE 14Par 3 | Yards 223__Similar in direction to No. 8, with a prevailing right-to-left wind, and trees on the left that could help keep errant shots from going out-of-bounds.

__HOLE 15Par 4 | Yards 413__Requires an accurate tee shot to a narrow landing area. The green is severely sloped and features some of the most difficult contours on the course. The approach must be on the correct side of the hole for a chance at birdie and to eliminate three-putts.__HOLE 15Par 4 | Yards 413__Requires an accurate tee shot to a narrow landing area.

__HOLE 16Par 4 | Yards 507__This once played as a par 5 in past majors at Southern Hills. The drive must carry a gentle slope about 245 yards off the tee for a good view of the green. A long or middle iron will be required to hit the small, heavily bunkered green. The putting surface is relatively flat and small, better suited for short irons.__HOLE 16Par 4 | Yards 507__This once played as a par 5 in past majors at Southern Hills.

__HOLE 17Par 4 | Yards 358__Another teaser for a short par 4, it requires only an iron off the tee. The fairway is tight and tumbling, and anything to the right will find the trees or a creek and lead to big trouble. The green is small, shallow, elevated, two-tiered and features some wicked hole locations.__HOLE 17Par 4 | Yards 358__Another teaser for a short par 4, it requires only an iron off the tee.

__HOLE 18Par 4 | Yards 465__The slight dogleg to the right starts with a tee shot to a plateau on the left side of the fairway, some 200 yards away from the elevated green. The putting surface slopes severely from back to front, and it's easy to three-putt.__HOLE 18Par 4 | Yards 465__The slight dogleg to the right starts with a tee shot to a plateau on the left side of the fairway, some 200 yards away from the elevated green.
