The 5th hole, a 460 metre par 5 which will require maximum concentration and a drivedown the middle of the fairway with ever-present views of the Rock ofGibraltar. For the second shot you'll have to avoid the central waterhazard protecting the fairway and leave your ball as near to the greenas possible with a single objective: making a birdie.
