Talk to a coach

The 18th hole at Caves Valley Golf Club, host of the BMW Championship, has the potential to be a decisive finishing hole late in the tournament.
At just 300 yards, the hole appears short, but the extremely narrow fairway makes tee-shot strategy critical.
Players protecting a lead are likely to choose a conservative line, aiming between the two fairway bunkers and hitting a fairway wood for control.
Golfers who need a birdie are forced into a more aggressive play with driver, despite the very tight landing area.
This hole perfectly illustrates the risk-versus-reward decision-making that can swing a tournament, where aggression can lead to birdie—or quickly result in bunkers or water.
