# A 490 yard par 4

A 490 yard par 4 costs the tour average 4.345 strokes from the tee, 0.35 over par. A 250 yard drive leaves 240 yards, from where the fairway table needs 3.420 strokes and the rough 3.640, so a par from the fairway is better than the average player manages.

## Key figures

- A 490 yard par 4 costs the tour average 4.345 strokes from the tee; a 250 yard drive leaves 240 yards, worth 3.420 from the fairway.
- A 20 handicap starts the hole at about 5.320 on the benchmark model.

## Scope

- The tee figure is the published tour table for a hole of this length; the tee shot rows come from the site’s dispersion model with a stated driver distance and spread on two versions of the hole.
