• This course involves crossing two ponds. The green is wide but steeply sloped, making it difficult to choose the club to use depending on the pin position and wind conditions.
• This is a beautiful hole with seasonal flowers planted in the pond in front.

• As this is the middle hole closest to the sea, there is often a headwind from the sea.
• The OB zone on the right, the bunker guarding the green, and the scattered pine trees can all pose unexpected hazards, so the key is to approach (third shot) from the right side, where you can take it easy.

1981: S. Ballesteros hits a super shot from the pine forest on the left. 2 green, birdie.

• A long-hitting professional golfer aims to hit the green in one shot, aiming for 300 yards.
• If you want to play safely, the landing spot for your tee shot should be about 100 yards from the green, but since the green slopes towards the back, you'll need a shot that will stop.

In 1985, he chipped in for an eagle with his favorite sand wedge off Tsuneyuki Nakajima's 54m second shot, becoming the first Japanese to win the tournament.

• The fairway slopes to the left and there is an OB on the right, so a fade shot is recommended.
• The second shot is likely to be hooked due to the toe being raised.
• The green slopes to the left and the bunker is deep, so the key is to aim for the right eye.

2005: Yokoo Kaname chips in from the left bunker for a birdie, tying with Tim Woods, but Tim Woods wins the tournament for the second consecutive year on the fourth hole of the playoff.

• The fairway slopes to the right, so the best shot is to hit a draw ball over the pine trees in the center.
• The second shot is difficult as the lie is toe down and right foot up.
• The second shot should be aimed at the left side of the green.

• The landing spot for your tee shot is to the left of the two cross bunkers on the right.
• On the second shot, you need to be careful of the guard bunker on the right depending on the wind direction.

In 1990, L. Nelson's tee shot landed in a cross bunker, resulting in a triple bogey due to the bunker being ruled as being in the bunker. This gave the hole the name "Nelson Bunker."

• Depending on the pin position and wind conditions, the club used will change by around 2 to 3 clubs.
• There is a pond in front of the green and the back of the green slopes steeply to the right, so this is a hole where you want to hit the ball accurately in both distance and direction.

In 1994, Masashi Ozaki's tee shot landed on the fountain on the table of the pond. He made a 26-yard putt and finished with a bogey of 626.

• The pines on the left and right of the fairway make the target look narrow, but the left side of the fairway is the best place to aim.
• Long hitters can aim for a two-on distance on this hole, but the fairway is narrow at only 8 yards, and the back of the green slopes sharply to the left, so the best shot is from the right side.
