In pictures: Tiger Woods' TGR Designs shares updates about the 'most challenging' hole at Trout National

Tiger Woods' TGR Design is set to launch a new championship golf course located in Vineland, New Jersey. The Trout National - The Reserve course will be built on top of an old quarry and farmland.

The course is formed in collaboration between business mogul, John Ruga and MLB star, Mike Trout. As a 15-time major championship winner, it is no doubt that Tiger Woods' course design will pose as a challenge to the world's best players.

According to the PGA Tour star, the tenth hole is the "most challenging" on the course. The hole will measure a whopping 525 yards - the longest par four hole on the course. Although the hole might not seem intimidating off the tee, the approach shot from the wide fairway will be sure to test the players' shot accuracy.

The green is placed on a dogleg left and is surrounded by a water hazard and a huge native sandy waste area and wetlands. For players that are not too confident to carry the hazards, there is a fairly wide area to the left of the green for a lay-up opportunity. As the course is built on a silica sand mine, there are plenty of sandy waste lands in play on the Trout National - The Reserve.
