  10. As we have the total number of weekly rounds since the 18 hole course opened in 2007, we can multiply rounds by 18 and divide by the total number of Aces to get an estimated tee shots:Aces ratio. To the nearest hundred, what is that ratio?
    • 4700:1

**For questions 8 and 9, Hole 5.5 is not an eligible answer and 5.5 weekly aces are not counted towards hole 5. For weekly Safari holes, the basket gets the credit; for example 8 tee to 6D, an ace would count towards hole 6.
