Here it is, the final hole on the back nine at Kaua'i Lagoons: a par 4 that ends with one of those second shots that can easily become addictive, for two reasons - first, it's the last chance to make a grand finish on a spectacular course; two, like the 17th Island Green at Sawgrass, the challenge is to land a ball on the green (I'm told that more than 45,000 balls are lost at the 17th Sawgrass every year. One has to wonder how many end up in the water here.).
