Course layout
For this Presidents Cup only, the course was rerouted, with a mid-round jump from hole 8 to hole 12, in an attempt to ensure more matches would see the course's famed "Green Mile," holes 16–18, by playing that stretch as holes 12–15 in the round. The alternate routing consequently ended with holes 10, 11 and 9.
