Cartgate (Out)
Named because it was close to the cart track which crossed the fairway.

Tee Shot
There is plenty of fairway to the left of the flag before the Principal's Nose bunker comes into play. A line slightly to the right of the flag will give you more of a chance of missing Cartgate bunker in your approach.

Open Championship 2005
Difficulty Ranking 14
Stroke Average 3.87

Approach
The further right the golf ball is the more open your shot will be. The further left it is the more Cartgate will come into play. The 3rd is not a long hole so you invariably be hitting a lofted club to a green that slopes away from you.
