Corner of the Dyke
The green is tucked into the corner of the dyke (or wall) which also gives its name to the second hole.

Tee Shot
Prudent golfers drive to the left of the Principal's Nose bunker. The more heroic golfers can try the gap between Principal's Nose and the out of bounds line. This makes for a shorter, easier second shot but this line off the tee was famously described by Jack Nicklaus as 'strictly for amateurs'.

Approach
From the left, the shot to the green is threatened by Grant's and Wig bunkers. It is wise to be long to master the significant bank to the front of the green. There is little trouble through the back.
