Talk to a coach

Sedgefield Country Club, host of the Wyndham Championship, features only two par-5 holes, making them major scoring opportunities for the field.
Last year, 58 eagles were recorded on these two par fives, showing just how important they are for low scoring.
However, only eight of those eagles came from players who missed the fairway, proving that accuracy off the tee is the biggest key to converting eagle chances.
With fairways around 300 yards out measuring only about 30 yards wide, players must prioritize placement over maximum distance.
To improve accuracy, many golfers will tee down their driver or choose a fairway wood, giving themselves the best chance to hit the fairway and create realistic eagle opportunities.
