Truist Championship Strategy & Key Shots | GOLFTEC on Golf Channel

Description

In this Golf Channel segment, a GOLFTEC coach breaks down key strategic elements of Hole 7 at Philadelphia Cricket Club ahead of the Truist Championship. The discussion focuses on how players approach scoring opportunities, manage risk off the tee, and position themselves for success on a course designed to reward smart decision-making.

  • Philadelphia Cricket Club provides a strategic test despite scoring opportunities, requiring players to think carefully about risk versus reward throughout the round.
  • The par-5 seventh hole highlights this challenge, inviting aggressive play after a strong drive but featuring a very small green measuring roughly 30 yards deep and wide.
  • Rather than simply attacking the flag, players must be precise with their club selection and aim point, choosing a target that accounts for the limited landing area.
  • By targeting the back-middle portion of the green, players maximize their margin for error, turning a bold decision into a realistic eagle opportunity through smart positioning rather than pure power.
