Plan your round at Riviera Country Club

A short par 5 that can give up a birdie. Favor the right side off the tee, avoiding the pines along the fairway and the oaks that guard a two-tiered green.

Plays harder than the yardage suggests. The green is elevated and narrow, with bunkers on the right.

The first and easiest of three straight par 4s, with the wind at your back. Long hitters sometimes go for the green.

A gentle dogleg left. Cutting the corner often costs visitors, so playing up the right side near the trees is safer.

A dogleg right with water and pines on both sides, and the longest par 4 on the front nine. The distant pumphouse is a good line for the drive.

The longest par 3, often playing a club or two longer into the prevailing headwind. The green takes a running shot.

The longest par 5, with a wide, forgiving fairway. Carrying the ridge across the landing area gains extra distance.

Plays about a club longer than the yardage because the green is elevated, and a shot that comes up short stays short. The wind can be deceptive.

A dogleg right that wants a slight fade through a gap in the trees. Favor the left side for the best approach angle.

Shorter than most par 4s with a fairway wider than it looks, but you must clear a bunker on the right. A drive of about 220 yards rolls down the hill and leaves a short pitch.

Regarded by many as the signature hole. The fairway is narrow, with a bunker and out-of-bounds on the right and trees on the left.

A par 3 into the prevailing wind, which can swirl high shots to the left. The air at the tee is deceptively still.

A double dogleg par 5 that rewards two good shots and punishes a stray one. There is room to play it as a three-shot hole.

A slight miss left is survivable, but a wide miss right finds a fairway bunker, large trees and a water hazard.

The shortest par 3 on the course. Take enough club and avoid missing left; the palm behind the green helps read the wind.

Opens the closing stretch. The fairway is wide for most players, while longer hitters must thread two large bunkers. Favor the left for the best angle in.

Water in front of the tee frames a tight tee shot that must find a narrow fairway between stands of trees.

Play short of the right fairway bunker for a mid-iron in, or carry Sissy Ridge on the left for a shorter approach, which takes a substantial carry.
