Thor's Dyke: Hole 17

Caldy's 17th is a dramatic par 3. From an elevated tee, the shot must hit the green over the stream lying in wait for anyone pulling up short. The green is on two levels, so club selection is important to judge the carry and position. This hole has the last of the Championship Black Tees.
The hole gets its name from the stream, part of which originates from Thurstaston Hill in the distance on the left. Thor's Stone is on the hill where Vikings are said to have gathered before the 12th Century.
