The green is long and wide, but the par-three 17th is anything but easy. From an elevated tee, a medium to long iron will be required to clear the fronting lake and avoid the bunkers deep and right. Let's not forget the tiered putting surface that slopes hard towards the water. The key is picking the right stick, especially when the wind is up. Making par here is no small task. In 2006, this hole was the fourth hardest and 17 players during round one found the water.
Owned by the PGA, the tour is not resting on its laurels, according to Keith Steinberg, Director of Sales & Marketing at Avenel. "Commissioner Tim Finchem placed a full page ad in the Washington Post recently, stating that the PGA Tour has begun an effort that will result in a comprehensive set of improvements to the TPC Avenel. This multi-million dollar investment will feature significant upgrades to the club, including major improvements to the golf course, along with a remodeling and expansion of the clubhouse."
At a shade over 7,000 yards, Avenel is certainly not long by the standards of today's game, but it plays very difficult, especially when you miss the fairway. It's a great mix of short and long holes with relatively small, but undulating, greens and deep, thick rough. With four sets of tees beginning at 4,800 yards, this course is for all players. I'm looking forward to the upcoming changes and, hopefully, an invite back.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.
Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.
According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).
Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.
''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.
''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''
Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.
”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
